Subject | Gas Price Hike Proposal |
Comment | As a small business owner and one that is experiencing the burden of inflation, a decrease in revenue, and an inflation forced increase in debt to stay open, I am strongly opposing any such vote by the board which would either directly or indirectly through legislative loop holes cause there to be an increase in taxation or other fees assessed causing the price of gas to be increased. The time is now that unelected appointed board members, armed with the ability to legislate higher costs of goods such as gas to get in line with the state populous. I am confident that support for increased gas prices is neither biased nor affiliated with any particular political party or movement. It is the consensus across the state that an increase in gas prices in an already overly regulated position of power, is not supported nor favorable amongst the majority citizens of the state of California. Sacramento owes its citizens accountability as well as the ability to vote on a decision affecting our hard earned dollars rather than be subjected to a back door armed power of the state governments ability to tax its citizens through hidden proposition loopholes. I am calling on this board to withdrawal a set vote, present the public with this information, and allow the citizens to make a choice next election cycle. |
