This measure would have established an annual special parcel tax in the Greater McCloud Fire and Emergency Response Zone with rates ranging from $8.28 to $93.79 depending on parcel type and number, including annual cost of living increases up to 3% for the first 10 years, to fund fire and emergency response services. The measure failed despite receiving 65.5% support, presumably because it required a two-thirds majority to pass.
