The first bullet, under “Measure UUT WILL” should read: • Increase the existing 8% UUT tax to a maximum of 10% on July 1, 2016. The bullet in the Impartial Analysis of Measure UUT in the sample ballots mailed to all voters mistakenly reads 2015; this date is a typo. The actual ordinance, which can be found on pages 9-10 of the sample ballot states that, if approved, “Effective July 1, 2016, the taxes imposed by this Chapter shall be at the rate of ten (10) percent, unless a lesser rate is established by the city council on or before August 1st of any year.” Thousands Ride New Gold Line Extension Story on page 6 Inside this week: CALENDAR Pg. 2 SIERRA MADRE NEWS Pg. 5 PASADENA/ALTADENA CELEBRATE HOLY WEEK & EASTER AT Pg. 6 SIERRA MADRE’S VILLAGE CHURCH OF THE ASCENSION ARCADIA NEWS Pg. 7 As at any joyous holiday sea- as the sun rises over the out- son, you can count on Church door service and the congre- MONROVIA/DUARTE Pg. 8 of the Ascension – Sierra gation shares the joy of the Madre’s Village Church - to Resurrection.
