Recommendation R5
The Grand Jury recommends that to the extent the Board believes it is reasonable to eliminate the exception in section 4(f) but maintain the $20,000 limit in section 4(a) of Ordinance 963 rather than the state’s limit, which is currently $5,900, the Board should explain its rationale to the voters.
