NO ON MEASURE N 

WISPPA recommends a No on Measure N  which would repeal the Users Utility Tax (UUT)
Picture
Members of WISPPA voted at the September 8th meeting to oppose Measure N because passage would mean drastic cuts to many services in our city (see below).  These cuts will radically alter the quality of life that residents of South Pasadena cherish.
