Shall an ordinance be adopted to ratify and continue Pasadena’s existing Utility Users Tax to fund general city services, including essential municipal services such as police, fire, street repair, parks and libraries, provided that low-income seniors and disabled residents remain exempt, the ordinance is updated to treat taxpayers equally regardless of technology used, and independent annual audits of the tax are required?
