Whether or not D passes, we are going to need a county wide sales tax hike from a board of supervisors referendum for a county jail to benefit everyone in the county.
Onion_grower:
After listening to both R-S facebook chats on measure D, I think zero money from D will go for a jail expansion.

Redding is a brick and mortar retail center for five counties. Brick and mortar retail is in real trouble. Kohls, Macys, Sears, Kmart, etc are closing as more people switch to shopping online.
Onion_grower:
The customer experience of shopping online is great. I can look on Amazon.com and find a great selection plus great reviews to help decide what I want.
Onion_grower:
I wouldn't buy 2 x 4s or bags of concrete on amazon, but I would buy a $400 nail gun.
Onion_grower:
As consumers get more experience, the next step is to look at other vendors for what you found on amazon. Usually you can find what you want from a vendor which does not collect sales tax. The total price, after tax and shipping is much lower. You are supposed to report those sales on your CA tax
Onion_grower:
Shopping online keeps setting records. The more people try it, the more they like it. Gary Cadd said city of Redding sales tax receipts were down $1.8 million.
Onion_grower:
As Gary explained, the CA board of equalization was holding the sales tax it owed Redding and Shasta county and only paid the last $600 million last year.

Onion_grower:
If the fed raises interest rates and the stock market corrects, CA could lose enough capital gains tax receipts to put the state back in deficit.
Onion_grower:
Larry Less and county staff should get to work writing referenda like measures D and E for a county wide sales tax for public safety. That is the only way to get a jail expansion in the next five years.

Unfortunately, in California, does it really matter how we vote for President? It will go to the Dems anyway.
Onion_grower:
The tea party should be leading the fight against measure D. Instead they are showing their lack of knowledge on infectious disease, immunology and dysmorphic genetics with a fruitless antivaccine campaign.
RallySally:
Obviously, you are uninformed, Onion_grower.
Onion_grower:
There is abundant information in the medical literature on the causes of autism. Genetic. Advanced maternal age. Advanced paternal age. Closely spaced pregnancies from women who held of childbearing, then have them closer than then 1.5 years recommended by the American College of Obstetrics and
Onion_grower:
Obstetrics and Gynecology. Many children who were diagnosed as ADHD ten years ago are now diagnosed as autism spectrum. There is a lot of overlap between the two.
RallySally:
Have you seen the documentary VAXXED? There is much evidence to the contrary of what you speak.
Onion_grower:
When the tea party started, it showed such potential. There used to be several physicians who attended.
Carl:
need to watch the Vaxxed documentary... the doctors make some logical and significant points...
Onion_grower:
The tea party self destructed by embracing nonsense like anti-vaccine, State of Jefferson and chemtrails. I prefer to get medical knowledge from the medical literature.

Sungold:
I just told my husband about the Military show, he is going to go!
Onion_grower:
Under the current tea party leadership, it has cost the republicans votes in this county.
Onion_grower:
Carl, I hope you will start talking about the need for a county referendum for a county sales tax for jail expansion. We will need it whether or not D passes.
Sungold:
Doni Greenberg has a great article on REU on A New Cafe...plus a very impressive picture, as well
RallySally:
Erin Ryan hasn't been involved with the group for over two years. You are obviously uninformed, Onion_grower.
Carl:
we should be pushing to defeat D and E and move to have a special election in March or April for a smaller city tax that is specific and a county tax that is specific for jail beds
Sungold:
I agree with that
RallySally:
I agree that Measure D and E should be defeated. But not with anotherkindof tax.
Sungold:
It never fails to amaze me how the City does not think things through. LIke this sales tax
Carl:
then what is the solution Sally ?...we need more beds...how do we get them
Carl:
Chief in Anderson is awesome... Mike is on the job and has a great strategy
RallySally:
Gary Cadd advocated hiring more CSO's 4 years ago-using the money in the rainy day fund. If public safety isn't a crisis condition, I don't now what you would call it.
Carl:
he sucks at poker but he is a great chief and has a great team...lol
Onion_grower:
We don't need more cops, we need fewer criminals. Jail expansion would turn things back like it was when Gary Cadd, Carl and I moved to Shasta County.
Carl:
I would be good with the additional CSO's but I want them as independent contractors somehow so they do not exacerbate the unfunded pension issue
Sungold:
You have to store their stuff? What stuff? Dirty rags, needles, drugs, filthy bed rolls, I say dump what they do not take. Store it for what?
Carl:
it has to be jail expansion.... restriction management says that more officers is going to have very little impact on crime and will make our budget issues worse
RallySally:
There is NO PLACE for more beds-even if the tax increase goes through.
Carl:
Sally, that is the issue they don't want to talk about
Sungold:
CSO's are an integral part of any police department. They have been greatly missed. They really took the load off of the sworn officer with paperwork, and non-dangerous responses
Carl:
but we need those CSO's to be independent contractors
RallySally:
Yes, Sungold-by law the "stuff" collected from the clean ups, have to be stored for 3 months, I think.
Sungold:
Plus working special events, traffic, and so much more. Independent contractors would be fine, but they need lots of training
Onion_grower:
Redding is a white flight town. Not PC, but everyone knows it. White addicts and mentally ill move here because of lack of jail space. Gangs are not nearly as bad in Redding as the rest of CA, and gang predators in places like Stockton cause addicts to move here.
Carl:
city planners and permit staff have forgotten how they get paid....need to connect it for them ...leadership is the issue..it ALL comes back to the top...city manager needs to GO
Sungold:
That is riduclous,, if they do not take it with them, they do not want it. Why store filth?
RallySally:
It's California law.
Sungold:
I agree, Starman was there when I was working there. At one small point in time I had to report to him...not impressed
Carl:
I gave them a solution more than a year ago.... lease groups city property for a dollar a year... then they can come in immediatelky and clean up and do not have to store anything
Sungold:
There is a plethora of CA laws that should be dumped
RallySally:
State of Jefferson!
Onion_grower:
Why do addicts and mentally ill choose Redding and not Stockton, Oroville, Eureka,Marysville, etc?
Sungold:
At the City Council meeting I learned from an officer about some of the "stuff" they have had stored for over 20 years. What a waste of space, totally ridiculous

That gentleman who wrote an article in the Opinion section a few Sundays ago hit the nail on the head when he told about going to the park and tried to hire a few homeless for $25 per hour to do some light work. They told him they get what they want for free, and that is why they came to Redding!
