The 1989 Measure D

I thought it would be useful to post some scans about the original Measure D. This is a Santa Barbara County sales tax measure that was passed in 1989, and that will expire in 2009. There is an effort to pass a new Measure D in this fall's Santa Barbara County election.

Some of the information about the new Measure D has made various statements about the old one, and so I thought it would be fun to just post the old information, and let everyone decide what they think.

BTW, an odd thing... the News-Press circa 1989 claimed that it was founded in 1885, not 1855!
