Why should repealing the Utility Users should be placed on the ballot? City leaders are either unable or unwilling to control spending and manage resources. Glendale citizens must take direct action to ensure that they do so. Reducing city revenues will force the city to live within its means, by being more prudent and managing more competently, rather than perpetually seeking new ways to tax us. The UUT only represents a 4% reduction in the city’s budget. If they cannot do it on their own, then we must do it form them.
If you would like to sign the petition, or would like to circulate and gather a few signatures from your friends or neighbors who are registered in the City of Glendale, please contact
