California: Police union submits new measure
Four days after turning in paperwork for an initiative that would have increased San Carlos police staffing and salaries — in addition to requiring voter approval for the city to contract for police services — the city’s police union submitted a revised proposal and admitted the original was a mistake. The revised proposal turned in Monday by the Police Officers Association keeps a section in the original that would prohibit the city from outsourcing police services without prior voter approval and reinstate the department if it is outsourced before the measure’s passage.
