Your Contra Costa County Registrar of Voters printed and circulated ballots for this measure that didn't conform to the law. The registrar ignored our Notice and Demand to follow the law. The legislature makes this a crime. (See: How 25 County Registrars Committed A Crime.)
If you want to get really steamed up about the collusion between your Registrar and Orinda Union Elementary Schools to lie and cheat in order to steal your taxes, you can read the letter for yourself.
Do you want to give this district a Thanksgiving surprise? Please call or text me (with #HonestBalllots, Contra Costa, 0628860:I, and your name) at 909-378-5401 right now for details. It's urgent and very time-sensitive.
Are you sure you want vote to support this extravagant measure? It has no accountability.
This campaign was designed by a member of the school bonds cartel. We figured out just the right words to get you to you to open up your checkbook.
We'd also like to introduce you to our partners -- bond lawyers, brokers, wealthy investors, architects, management firms, construction companies, and trade unions. We all stand to make a ton of money on these bonds. Our profits come right off the top, before a penny is actually spent on improving the facilities.
We're not just doing it for the money. We like to show off our work in Architectural Digest and other places where the rich and famous congregate.
Remember, we've taken a lot of risk. We gave money to get your governing board members elected, so they'd be sure to remember us when we came around for a hand-out later.
It's just business-as-usual, here in sunny Corruptifornia.
Please don't read the fine print. That's just put in by the lawyers to make what we're going to do to for you legal.

Bonds: Yes____ No____
Commentary Question Analysis Argument in Favor Argument Against Full Text Tax Rate Agenda Resolution
The California Constitution provides that school districts may issue bonds for the construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or replacement of school facilities, including the furnishing and equipping of school facilities or the acquisition or lease of real property for school facilities, with the approval of 55% of the voters voting at an election for that purpose.
By resolution, the Orinda Union School District has proposed that bonds of the District be issued in an amount up to $55,000,000. This measure provides that proceeds from the sale of the bonds will generally be used to "upgrade classroom air conditioning, electrical, fire safety, security lighting, communications/camera systems, classroom locks; update science, technology, engineering, art, math classrooms; construct, acquire, repair classrooms, facilities, sites/equipment." The specific projects are set forth in the bond project list attached to the resolution of the Board of Trustees. The measure provides that a citizens' oversight committee will be established to ensure that bond proceeds are properly expended and that annual performance and financial audits will be conducted. The measure further provides that bond proceeds will only be used for the purposes specified in the measure, and not for any other purpose.
Approval of this measure authorizes the levy of ad valorem taxes upon taxable property to repay the bonded indebtedness, both principal and interest, in each year that bonds are outstanding. The Orinda Union School District has prepared a Tax Rate Statement, which represents the District's best estimates of the property tax rates required to service the bonds. The estimated highest annual tax rate required to be levied to fund the bonds is expected to be $30.00 per $100,000 of assessed valuation.
Approval of the measure does not guarantee that the proposed project or projects in the District that are the subject of bonds under the measure will be funded beyond the local revenues generated by the measure. The proposed project or projects may assume the receipt of matching state funds, which could be subject to appropriation by the Legislature or approval of a statewide bond measure.
A "yes" vote authorizes the issuance of the bonds and the levy of taxes as estimated in the Tax Rate Statement to repay the bonded indebtedness. A "yes" vote by 55% of the voters within the District voting on the measure is required for passage of this measure. A "no" vote on this measure disapproves the issuance of the bonds and the levy of the taxes for the bonded indebtedness.

Vote YES on E & I to upgrade aging classrooms and improve student safety at Del Rey Elementary, Glorietta Elementary, Sleepy Hollow Elementary, Wagner Ranch Elementary and Orinda Intermediate School.
Our Orinda schools provide a high-quality education, but our classrooms are 45 to 60 years old, deteriorating and in need of repairs. For example, because Orinda classrooms don’t have air conditioning, schools had to be closed last year when the temperature reached 107°. When it rains, Orinda schools often experience flooding, which can damage school buildings and disrupt student learning.
Orinda schools now require upgrades to give our students the same opportunities as students in Lafayette, Moraga and Walnut Creek schools, which have all passed local education funding measures to update their classrooms.
Measure I and its companion measure, Measure E, work together to protect the quality of our schools and safety of our students.
Voting YES on E & I will:
Strict Fiscal Accountability Is Mandatory
Even if you don’t have school-aged children, supporting quality schools is a wise investment that protects our quality of life and strong property values.

To update science, technology, engineering, art, math classrooms; upgrade classroom air conditioning, electrical, fire safety, security lighting, communications/camera systems, classroom locks; construct, acquire, repair classrooms, facilities, sites/equipment, shall Orinda Union School District's measure authorizing $55,000,000 in bonds at legal rates, levying 3 cents/$100 assessed value, averaging $3,200,000 annually while bonds are outstanding, be adopted, with citizen oversight, annual audits, no administrator salaries, all funds for Orinda schools only?"
PROJECT LIST
The Board of Trustees ("Board") of the Orinda Union School District is committed to protecting the quality of academic instruction in core subjects like math, science, reading and writing by repairing and modernizing aging schools, updating 45-60 year old classrooms, and ensuring the safety and security of all students. To that end, the Board received input from teachers, staff and the community and evaluated the District's urgent and critical facility needs, including the need for up-to-date technology, safety issues, class size reduction, computer and information technology in developing the types of projects to be funded by this measure, as such are described below and also as outlined in the District's 2018 Facilities Master Plan, presented to the Board on May 14, 2018 and incorporated herein in its entirety by this reference.

REPAIR AGING SCHOOLS:
Basic Renovation, Repair and Upgrade Projects
Goals and Purposes: The District's school facilities and classrooms are 45-60 years old and need upgrades to ensure the health and safety of all students.
This measure will upgrade classrooms and educational facilities to provide up-to-date classrooms for core academics, including math, science, technology, engineering, reading, writing and social sciences.
STUDENT SAFETY PROJECTS
Goals and Purposes: Our local schools have outdated security features that need to be improved. This measure will fund security fencing, cameras, and lighting, and upgrade other essential security systems to provide safe learning environments.
Even if you do not have school-age children, updating local schools is a wise investment. Good schools improve the quality of life in our community and protect the value of our homes.

The budget for each project is an estimate and may be affected by factors beyond the District's control. Some projects throughout the District may be undertaken as joint use projects in cooperation with other local public or non-profit agencies. The final cost of each project will be determined as plans are finalized, construction bids are awarded and projects are completed. Based on the final costs of each project, certain of the projects described above may be delayed or may not be completed. Demolition of existing facilities and reconstruction of facilities scheduled for repair and upgrade may occur, if the Board determines that such an approach would be more cost-effective in creating enhanced and operationally efficient campuses. Necessary site preparation/restoration and landscaping, may occur in connection with new construction, renovation or remodeling, or installation or removal of relocatable classrooms, including ingress and egress, removing, replacing, or installing irrigation, utility lines, trees and landscaping, redirecting fire access, and acquiring any necessary easements, licenses, or rights of way to the property. The listed projects will be completed as needed. Each project is assumed to include its share of furniture, equipment, architectural, engineering, and similar planning costs, program management, staff training expenses and a customary contingency, and escalation for unforeseen design and construction costs. Qualified costs also include the costs of preparation of all facility planning, facility assessment reviews and master plans, environmental studies, construction documentation, inspection and permit fees, andthe temporary housing of dislocated District activities caused by bond projects.
Bond proceeds shall be expended only for the types of projects and purposes identified herein. Proceeds of the bonds may be used to pay or reimburse the District for the cost of District staff when performing work on or necessary and incidental to the bond projects. The District shall create an account into which proceeds of the bonds shall be deposited and comply with the reporting requirements of Government Code § 53410.
Fiscal Accountability: In accordance with Education Code Section 15272, the Board of Trustees will appoint a citizens' oversight committee and conduct annual independent audits to assure that funds are spent only on district projects and for no other purpose. The expenditure of bond money
B-4
DOCSSF/145035v11/022000-0001
on these projects is subject to stringent financial accountability requirements. By law, performance and financial audits will be performed annually, and all bond expenditures will be monitored by an independent citizens' oversight committee to ensure that funds are spent as promised and specified. The citizens' oversight committee must include, among others, representation of a bona fide taxpayers association, a business organization and a senior citizens organization. No district employees or vendors are allowed to serve on the citizens' oversight committee. The District shall NOT sell any capital appreciation bonds.
No Administrator Salaries: Proceeds from the sale of the bonds authorized by this proposition shall be used only for the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, or replacement of school facilities, including the furnishing and equipping of school facilities, and not for any other purpose, including teacher and school administrator salaries and other operating expenses.

TAX INFORMATION STATEMENT (Health and Safety)
An election will be held in the Orinda Union School District (the "District") on November 6, 2018, to authorize the sale of up to $55,000,000 in bonds of the District to finance school facilities as described in the proposition. If the bonds are approved, the District expects to issue the bonds in multiple series over time. Principal and interest on the bonds will be payable from the proceeds of tax levies made upon the taxable property in the District. The following information is provided in compliance with Sections 9400 through 9405 of the California Elections Code.
Voters should note that the estimated tax rate is based on the ASSESSED VALUE of taxable property on the County of Contra Costa official tax rolls, not on the property's market value. Property owners should consult their own property tax bills to determine their property's assessed value and any applicable tax exemptions.
Attention of all voters is directed to the fact that the foregoing information is based upon the District's projections and estimates only, which are not binding upon the District. The actual tax rates, debt service and the years in which they will apply may vary from those presently estimated, due to variations from these estimates in the timing of bond sales, the amount of bonds sold and market interest rates at the time of each sale, and actual assessed valuations over the term of repayment of the bonds. The dates of sale and the amount of bonds sold at any given time will be determined by the District based on need for construction funds and other factors. The actual interest rates at which the bonds will be sold will depend on the bond market at the time of each sale. Actual future assessed valuation will depend upon the amount and value of taxable property within the District as determined by the County Assessor in the annual assessment and the equalization process.

WHEREAS, Orinda schools need updates to add air conditioning to ensure schools are not forced to close down when temperatures get too high; and
WHEREAS, the State of California (the "State") does not provide the District with adequate funding to maintain its educational facilities and academic programs; and
WHEREAS, the Board has concluded that the District's only remedy to avoid undermining its educational programs is to secure local funding that the State cannot take away; and
WHEREAS, even if one did not have school-age children, updating local schools is a wise investment since good schools improve the quality of life in our community and protect the value of our homes; and
WHEREAS, the Board has received information regarding the possibility of a local bond measure and its impact on protecting student safety, upgrading technology infrastructure, improving and modernizing schools and making basic repairs to aging facilities; and
WHEREAS, such a bond measure also can provide funds that cannot be taken away by the State or be used to increase salaries, benefits or pensions for administrators, teachers or other school employees; and

WHEREAS, such a measure must include mandatory taxpayer protections, including an independent citizens' oversight committee, mandatory audits and reports to the community to ensure funds are spent properly; and
WHEREAS, on November 7, 2000, the voters of California approved the Smaller Classes, Safer Schools and Financial Accountability Act ("Proposition 39") which reduced the voter threshold for ad valorem property tax levies used to pay for debt service on bonded indebtedness to 55% of the votes cast on a school district general obligation bond; and
WHEREAS, concurrent with the passage of Proposition 39, Chapter 1.5, Part 10, Division 1, Title 1 (commencing with Section 15264) of the Education Code (the "Act") became operative and established requirements associated with the implementation of Proposition 39; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Education Code Section 15270, based upon a projection of assessed property valuation, the Board has determined that, if approved by voters, the tax rate levied to meet the debt service requirements of the bonds proposed to be issued will not exceed the Proposition 39 limits per year per $100,000 of assessed valuation of taxable property; and
WHEREAS, Elections Code Section 9400 et seq. requires that a tax rate statement be contained in all official materials relating to the election, including any ballot pamphlet prepared, sponsored, or distributed by the District; and
