Chula Vista Wisely Spends Sales Tax Dollars


CHULA VISTA, Calif., March 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Like many cities throughout the country, the City of Chula Vista is struggling to replace and maintain critical infrastructure. In November 2016, residents approved a half-cent sales tax measure to fund infrastructure projects. The temporary tax, which began on April 1, 2017, is designated for ten years.

Measure P is projected to bring in $178 million. To expedite projects, the City Council approved $71 million in bond funding allowing work to begin immediately on critical items. Projects underway include:

Future planned usage of Measure P funds include renovations to library restrooms, remodeling of the Senior Center, repairs to City sidewalks, upgrade play structures and playground surfacing, new barbeque grills, tables and benches in City parks, corrugated metal pipe repair and replacement, new roofs and other building repairs at City buildings, and a new telecommunications system.
