§ 3.08.210. Cost analysis of city measure.

Whenever any city measure qualifies for a placement on the ballot, the City Clerk shall transmit a copy of the measure to the City Auditor. The City Auditor shall determine whether, in his or her opinion, the adoption of the measure will increase or decrease the cost of city government or the city tax rate, and the City Auditor shall prepare an impartial analysis of the measure covering its financial impact upon the city government. In preparing the financial analysis the City Auditor shall consult with the Director of Finance and the City Council Rules Committee. The financial analysis shall be printed preceding the arguments for and against the measure, and shall not exceed five hundred (500) words in length.
