Local Ballot Measures F and J

Voters in Redlands rejected a new limit on downtown building height and favor an increased tax on distribution warehouses.

Measure F - An attempt to limit building height in downtown Redlands is officially defeated by voters. More than 22,000 votes were cast with 62% of voters rejecting the measure. What it means: All current zoning and development rules remain in place. According to City officials, the University Village project can still move forward through an exception from Measure U allowing 4-story buildings near transit areas.

Measure J - Voters favor a tax increase on distribution warehouses. 53% of voters accepted a measure to increase warehouse tax by 10 cents. What it means: This change in rate will result in about $530,000 in annual revenue for the general fund. While proponents of this measure intend the money to be used to offset the local negative environmental and social impacts of distribution centers, there’s no guarantee the money will be used that way. Mayor Pro Tem Eddie Tejeda has proposed using the funds to expand and maintain the City’s street trees or fund ideas from the local Climate Policy Committee.
