Culver City will hold a Special All-Mail Ballot Election on Tuesday, August 26, for one ballot measure. The election is for one general tax ordinance to be submitted to the qualified voters that imposes a general sales tax at the rate of 1/4-cent per dollar.

If approved, Measure CL would provide funding for City services including: maintaining three fully staffed fire stations/ 911 emergency response times; retaining firefighters, paramedics, police officers; homeless reduction services/ encampment prevention; improving parks/ fields; repairing potholes/ streets/ storm drains; senior/ youth services and other General Fund uses, by enacting a ¼ cent sales tax, providing approximately $5,600,000 annually until ended by voters. This also requires all funds be locally controlled Unlike the previous sales tax increase the voters approved this measure has no sunset provision v would be permanent.
