With these changes, you may now reside in different districts, have new representation or have a new polling place. If you need further information, please call 858-565-5800 or 1-800-696-0136. Procedure To "Clean Up" The Voter Rolls To keep the roster of registered voters as accurate as possible and reduce election costs, the San Diego County Registrar of Voters will be using a procedure - known as "Alternate Residency Confirmation" - that permits removal from the active voter roll the names of those registered voters who have NOT voted in any election nor had their registration updated in the preceding four (4) years. Following the November 5, 2002 General Election, registered voters who have not voted nor had their registrations updated during the last four (4) years will be mailed a postcard notice to confirm their residency. The pre-addressed return postage-paid card MUST BE RETURNED to the Registrar of Voters by the registered voter should he or she wish to remain on the active voter roil. If the card is not returned in 15 days, or is returned by the postal service as undeliverable, the voter's registration will be moved to the inactive voter roll. Registrants on the inactive voter roll are not sent election materials - saving taxpayer dollars - and may be required to show proof of current residency in order to vote in future elections. This notice is a legal prerequisite to using the "Alternate Residency Confirmation" procedure (California Elections Code Section 2224c). INSTRUCTIONS - VOTING AT THE POLLS STEP 1. PUT BALLOT IN DEVICE Insert ballot card until slots fit over the two red-tipped posts on the device. Make sure the ballot card REMAINS secured in this position until you finish voting. STEP 2. VOTE YOUR BALLOT To cast a vote for a candidate or measure, place the punch stylus into the hole located directly to the right of your selection. Using a straight, downward motion push the stylus completely through the hole until it stops. EXAMPLE: Voting on a candidate KRIS WRIGHT punch here t 105-»O EXAMPLE: Voting on a measure PROP 175 punch here 240 YES •» O 241 NO •» O To continue voting, turn each page in the device until you have completed all of your ballot. Do not use a pen, pencil or other implement except the provided punch stylus. Do not mark or deface the voting pages in the device. If you make a mistake, return the ballot card to the precinct officer to obtain another. Do not put any distinguishing marks on your ballot (i.e. your name, initials, signature, etc.). This will void your ballot. Note: TO CAST A WRITE-IN VOTE, write the candidate's NAME, their political PARTY (unless it is for a local nonpartisan office) and OFFICE in the space designated on the upper portion of the ballot card. STEP 3. REMOVE AND INSPECT YOUR BALLOT When finished voting, lift the ballot card off the posts and withdraw it from the voting device. Turn ballot over and carefully inspect the back. Remove any punchouts that did not get completely detached. STEP 4. RETURN VOTED BALLOT TO PRECINCT OFFICER Detach and keep top stub of ballot card. This serves as your receipt for voting. To ensure secrecy, fold ballot over at the perforation line. Return ballot and voting device to the precinct officer. SAVE $$ DUPLICATE MAILING NOTICE SAVE $$ If a voter receives more than one sample ballot, name is misspelled, if the voter has moved from this address or is deceased, please call the Registrar of Voters at: 858-565-5800 or toll free 1-800- 696-0136. This phone call will improve the accuracy of Voter Registration records and save taxpayer dollars by reducing printing and mailing costs.

GROSSMfTH Age: 42 Father, Husband, Mortgage Banker It's time we elect citizen politicians - people that have real jobs and live in the real world. Not more lawyers and bureaucrats! I'm married with two children, ages 9 and 10. I have a BA degree in Economics from SDSU and a MBA from Cal-State Dominguez Hills. I'm a VP with Sun Trust Mortgage. I'm running for my first political office because I love my children and want a better world for them. I have accepted no endorsements or contributions from any special interest group and therefore am not beholden to anyone. I support our right to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness as stated in the Declaration of Independence. I believe in personal freedom and economic freedom. All individuals have the right to exercise sole dominion over their own lives, and have the right to live in whatever manner they choose, so long as they do not forcibly interfere with the equal right of others. If elected, these are the principals that I will follow. The government takes too much! Since the last election four years ago our state revenues have increased $50 billion and yet our legislators want even more taxes. That's $50 billion of YOUR money. Where did it go? As your state senator I will work for you to keep both your freedoms and your paycheck. www.LP.org STATE ASSEMBLY 74th District - Democrat JOHN HERRERA Age: 63 Retired Disability Analyst I live in Vista, California with my wife and son.

Platform: To contribute to a better, more sustainable quality of life for Californians. Quality of life begins with a clean environment. Waste management and recycling issues need addressing. Energy, transportation, housing, healthcare, job security, education, access to computers and the Internet are aspects of quality of life dependent on budget. An unnecessary money drain is spent on importing energy and water. San Diego County will benefit by spending money locally for alternative energy sources and water desalination.

I am running for State Assembly because I want a free, personally responsible society for my daughter. I believe in less government, more personal responsibility and solutions for our community issues. I bring to the table years of business and executive management experience. My principles of conservative fiscal policies combined with protections for personal freedoms make me a unique candidate to serve you - a bridge candidate. Too often we expect the government to solve our problems. One size fits all government-solutions don't work. They make our budget deficit worse and government bigger. Rather than growing more poorly-run state programs, I will promote choice through free market solutions and encourage more personal responsibility. I will work to reduce the role of government in our lives by enacting parental school choice, promoting privately run/funded charities, and eliminating oppressive regulations and anti self-protection laws. Our government will continue to grow unless we stop giving career politicians the power and the government control over our lives. WE THE PEOPLE must take back the responsibility for our lives and our communities. As, your assemblywoman, I will vote for and propose legislation that will... Move us Toward Smaller Government. . . . Expect more Personal responsibility. . . . Promote Non-Government Solutions. I will vote against legislation that will... Raise our Taxes.... Limit our Freedoms.... Regulate our Enterprises. Let's celebrate and live freedom through personal responsibility and a little TLC - Truth, Love, and Courage. www.KristiStoneForSA74.org CS-0374-1 SD 630-015 SUPERIOR COURT Judge of the Superior Court - Office No. 30 RICHARD WHITNEY Attorney/Judge Pro Tern/USD Faculty JOIN 57% OF VOTERS IN THE PRIMARY ELECTION WHO VOTED FOR A CHANGE JN THIS POSITION.

Age: 71 Incumbent/Family Physician Palomar College is an excellent college. Working together, we can make it outstanding. A good school trustee works courteously and productively with fellow trustees, faculty, administrators, classified employees, students, and the public. A good trustee has no agenda except the improvement of the educational program, and maintaining modern educational facilities and long-term financial stability, which are necessary to support the educational program. During my 19 years as a Palomar College trustee, I have attended dozens of workshops at which trustees and professional educators have discussed innovations which Palomar College can use to improve student learning. We are expanding our networks of community college leaders to enhance state funding, and to work together on cooperative projects. I am vice-president of the Inland Valley Trustee and C.E.O. Association, a group of 12 community colleges in southern California colleges. We are gaining in credibility with the legislature. As a former parttime faculty member at Palomar College from 1975 to 1983,1 believe I understand the needs of students and faculty. I ask for your vote so that I can contribute to Palomar College's future.

My intent is to actively work to ensure access for every student without raising student fees; advocate for stabilized and permanent Prop 98 State funding and exploration of additional funding sources; aggressively pursue long range planning for enlarging the full time faculty and adding more campus land and buildings; support the Master Plan for Education in California recommendations; and fully meet the Partnership for Excellence goals including increased transfer rates.

JUBB Banking Having lived in Carlsbad for more than 20 years, I am very concerned about the quality of life in Carlsbad. Politicians tout their development of and adherence to the Growth Management Plan in maintaining the quality of life in Carlsbad: Is our quality of life being preserved? Carlsbad needs an individual who will enforce the spirit of the Growth management plan and truly preserve the quality of life in Carlsbad. I will. A conservative philosophy is what is needed in the future development of Carlsbad. Focusing on the needs and concerns of local residences, I will work to insure that these concerns are not subjugated to outside special interest influences. The future is going to need a strong individual without political debts who can make difficult decisions necessary to protect the integrity of Carlsbad. Long-term politicians often forget who they serve. IT IS TIME! The citizens and local business interests should come first not political contributors or considerations. Every decision should benefit and not impact the citizens of Carlsbad.

"BUD" LEWIS Age: 71 Mayor, City of Carlsbad In 1986, Carlsbad adopted the Growth Management Plan by popular vote. I helped draft that Plan and it continues to guide my actions. I am the right person to turn the vision of the Growth Management Plan into reality. I achieve results and I act on principle. Carlsbad is economically more successful, has better public services and better control over development than any other North County city. The strength of our city comes largely from consistent leadership under the Growth Management Plan. Major jobs face Carlsbad. Controlling traffic, improving parks and insuring a guaranteed source of water are jobs which require strong, experienced leadership. We created a vision of Carlsbad together. I have demonstrated that my decisions are based on the principles we adopted, and the results are seen in our beautiful city. I ask for your vote. CITY OF CARLSBAD Member of the City Council ALLEN J. "AL" MANZANO Businessman Carlsbad has grown rapidly in size and population. The City Council is no longer responsive to citizen and neighborhood control. Council members take office with less than a majority vote after citywide elections too reliant on money and special interests. I support an expanded Council and Council districting to resolve these problems. I support review of the City's master plans and development that enhances quality of life and protects our environment. I oppose repeal of Proposition H which limits Council authority to approve projects over $1 million without citizen approval. Without ballot oversight, projects could be foisted on the taxpayer that reflect Council favoritism and special interests. I am a businessman and president of Educational Resource Associates, the founding chairman of the California School of Culinary Arts, and, formerly, president and chairman of a number of public and privately held corporations, vice president of the American Hospital Association, and an executive in both State and Federal government.

I want to protect our quality of life in our fine city by taking a "hands on" approach to our traffic problems, water issues, housing, education and safety. I am a business person and have a keen interest in the success of Carlsbad. We should attempt to reach a healthy balance between growth and maintaining the quaintness that Carlsbad offers and that we ait enjoy. Keeping our city safe with top quality police and fire departments, having available housing for all our residents, maintaining an atmosphere where business can thrive, providing an environment where our children are well-educated, and being able to keep and protect the natural beauty of our beaches and open space - these are the focal points of my campaign and my commitment to all citizens of Carlsbad when elected.

CITY OF CARLSBAD City Treasurer JAMES "JIM" STANTON Age: 70 Carlsbad City Treasurer Professor of Accounting It has been my privilege being your Treasurer for twelve years. I again ask for your support. Significant financial changes have occurred since first being elected in 1990. Strong revenue receipts, disciplined budgets, and prudent investments have contributed to increase Carlsbad's investment portfolio from $75,000,000 to over $400,000,000. As City Treasurer I manage all cash for the City and its agencies. Among other activities, this includes personally making all investments. Reports of investments are made monthly to City Council and are reviewed quarterly by an advisory committee. Carlsbad's investments have consistently outperformed investments made by the State of California and the County of San Diego. Cash and investments managed by the City Treasurer have grown so they now represent 52% of the total assets reported by the City and its agencies, an increase from 31% twelve years ago. Carlsbad is fiscally the strongest city in the county. My management of the cash and investments is but a small part of the City, but without strong cash flows and prudent investments, many amenities we enjoy in Carlsbad would not be possible. The financial position of Carlsbad will grow in importance. My experience will ensure continued sound management and high professional standards. CITY OF CARLSBAD City Clerk LORRAINE M. WOOD City Clerk, City of Carlsbad It has been my privilege and pleasure to serve you and the City of Carlsbad for the past three years as Deputy City Clerk, and then as appointed City Clerk. Under my guidance the City Clerk's Office has provided fast, efficient and courteous service to Carlsbad's citizens. We have also implemented some important changes in how the City Clerk's Office serves you. First we launched the Document Management system. This system allows citizens to access agenda bills, council meeting minutes, property records and many other important city documents. Maintaining and improving the accessibility of public records is a primary goal of this office, one I take very seriously. Another accomplishment is working as a team member on the Carlsbad Citizens' Academy. The Citizens' Academy is a 7-week course provided to the public on the operation and management of the City of Carlsbad. Approximately 130 citizens have graduated from the course and the waiting list of attendees is growing. Finally, I was designated as a Certified Municipal Clerk by the International Institute of Municipal Clerks in February 2002. I will continue to serve you and the City of Carlsbad with all my energy and enthusiasm. Remember on November 5: "Wood is Good for Carlsbad"! CS-09AO-5 SD 630-028 CS-09AO-6 SO 630-029 CITY OF CARLSBAD Proposition B (This proposition will appear on the ballot in the following form.) n HW Sha" tne exPenditure limitation set forth in Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.24 (Proposition H, adopted 1982) be repealed? This proposition requires approval by a simple majority (50% plus one vote) of the voters to pass. CITY ATTORNEY'S IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS THE WAY IT IS NOW: Existing federal, state or local law requires that each acquisition of real property or capital improvement project go through an extensive budgeting and approval process. Depending on the nature of the acquisition or project, it can be paid for from special funds, general funds, or a combination of both. Special funds are generated from special taxes or development fees, which can only be used for the purpose for which they were imposed. General funds are generated from general taxes or general fees, which can be used for any municipal purpose. Most acquisitions of real property or capital improvement projects are paid for from special funds. However, the acquisition of real property or a capital improvement project requiring the expenditure of over $1 million in general funds is subject to Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.24, which requires a majority vote of the citizens: "The City of Carlsbad shall make no real property acquisition and/or no improvement to real property the cost of which exceeds $1 million in City funds, unless the proposed acquisition and/or improvement project and the cost in City funds is first placed upon the ballot and approved by a majority of the voters voting thereon at an election. A project may not be separated into parts or phases so as to avoid the effects of this chapter." This chapter 1.24 was adopted by initiative vote of the citizens in 1982 and cannot be repealed except by another vote of the citizens. THE PROPOSAL: Proposition B would repeal Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.24. If repealed, capital improvement projects or acquisition of real property requiring the expenditure of more than $1 million in general funds would not require a ballot measure and approval by a majority of voters. Proposition B would not affect any other existing budgeting and approval processes required by federal, state and local law. A "YES" VOTE MEANS: If you vote "yes", you wish to repeal Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.24, which requires a majority vote of the citizens for an expenditure of general funds over $1 million for real property acquisitions or capital improvement projects. A "NO" VOTE MEANS: If you vote "no", you do not wish to repeal Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.24 and the voter approval requirement will remain in place. HOW PROPOSITION "B" GOT ON A BALLOT. At its meeting of August 6, 2002, the City Council voted to place Proposition B before the voters to decide whether or not Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.24 should be repealed. FISCAL IMPACT: Proposition B would repeal Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1.24 removing the expenditure limitation on the acquisition of real property or capital improvement projects the cost of which is over $1 million in general fund monies. It does not authorize the expenditures themselves, does not generate any funds and does not increase any taxes, fees or assessments. ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF PROPOSITION B During the fast 20 years, the Prop H limitation on City expenditures in the Municipal Code has slowed the City's ability to serve the best interest of our residents. Needed park and road projects have waited for developers for funding while our residents were shorted in athletic fields and endured traffic congestion. Rather than having the use of additional facilities that would serve the community, residents have waited for ballot measures to be crafted and placed before the voters before action could be taken. A. REPEAL OF CHAPTER 1.24 WOULD ALLOW THE CITY TO USE SAVINGS TO BUILD FACILITIES SOONER AND BE PAID BACK AS DEVELOPER FEES ARE COLLECTED. B. REPEALING CHAPTER 1.24 WOULD PROVIDE MORE FACILITIES SOONER WITH NO INCREASE IN TAXES OR ASSESSMENTS. C. PUBLIC HEARINGS WOULD STILL BE REQUIRED. Reserve funds from conservative fiscal management are now available to build parks and roads sooner if Chapter 1.24 is repealed. This can be done while continuing to require growth to pay its own way. The Growth Management Plan (GMP) requires developers, not existing residents and businesses, to pay for new facilities such as parks, playfields, libraries and roads. Unfortunately, the money is not collected from developers until development occurs. This means that the construction of facilities may lag behind need. Chapter 1.24, adopted in 1982, is obsolete and outdated. Since then the voters have approved the GMP, and long-range capital improvement plans have been created to guide development of new facilities. A YES VOTE ON THIS MEASURE IS AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUTURE OF CARLSBAD. We urge you to vote YES on Proposition B. CLAUDE LEWIS Mayor ANN KULCHIN Mayor Pro Tern RAMONA FINNILA City Council Member JULIE NYGAARD City Council Member PR-09AO-1 SO 630-030 PR-09AO-2 SD 630-031 REBUTTAL TO THE ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF PROPOSITION B VOTE NO ON PROPOSITION B In 1982 the citizens of Carlsbad wisely established, through Prop H, a level of control over city spending that has helped keep Carlsbad fiscally healthy even though our state and federal governments have gone through very difficult times. Now the City Council wants to remove all controls. PROTECT THE TAXPAYERS! Expenditure Limitation law paved the way for Carlsbad's very effective Growth Management Plan (GMP). This has forced the city to find funding from other sources like developers and builders. The Expenditure Limitation has created budget surpluses for the City of Carlsbad while other surrounding cities have been running huge deficits. Which made Carlsbad the envy of other cities. PROTECT THE OPEN SPACES! Taking away the expenditure limitation would give a green light to those politicians who wish to develop the open spaces in Carlsbad by allowing them to spend on construction and development. This would limit the requirement under the Growth Management Plan to be reimbursed by the developers. It will shift the burden from developers, who profit from this development, to us-the taxpayers. POLITICIANS BENEFIT! NOT US! Proposition B could limit the need for developer reimbursement under the Growth Management Plan. It will shift the burden from developers to us-the citizens/taxpayers. Prop B will allow politicians to spend millions of dollars of your money without voter approval. Proposition B could allow politicians to spend, spend, spend which will eventually mean higher taxes in Carlsbad. Stop this runaway government spending, VOTE NO ON PROPOSITION Bl INEZ YODER Canyons Network PAUL KING Libertarian Party Vice-Chair DIANE NYGAARD Preserve Calavera THOMAS MANGUM Real Estate Investor CAROLYN K. WOOD Business Owner ARGUMENT AGAINST PROPOSITION B DON'T RAISE THE SPENDING LIMITS! 'LET'S SUPPORT THE SPENDING LIMITATION The limit on city government is a very reasonable method of providing some control over the politicians' natural tendency to "tax-tax, spend-spend." Our city council claims that they can't live with such limitations—that more is always needed. We must not let them con us into more spending, which always results in higher taxes. THE POLITICIANS NEED OUR HELP Apparently our city council haven't the backbone to tell the special interest groups that there is some limit as to how much the taxpayers will pay. Thus these politicians need our "backbone" in the form of the limitations so that they can tell each group that there is not an infinite amount of taxpayer money available to dole out. * WE LIVE WITHIN OUR BUDGETS, THE CITY CAN DO THE SAME **Please read a portion of the original Limitation's Purpose and Intent 1.24-Purpose and Intent "The acquisition and/or development of real estate by the city has profound financial impacts upon the budget of the city and upon the tax burden imposed upon the taxpayers. It is the intent of this chapter to provide the citizens and taxpayers of Carlsbad with an opportunity to express directly their preference by vote prior to major city expenditures for the purchase or development of land It is not the intent of this chapter to interfere with the normal day-to-day administration of the city or with routine ongoing capital expenditures." 'CONTROL GOVERNMENT SPENDING The Carlsbad Municipal code was passed because politicians cannot be trusted to control spending themselves. Their attempts to overturn this limitation only prove that we were right all along. Carlsbad is the Greatest City in Californial Lets keep it that way. VOTE AGAINST CHANGING CARLSBAD MUNICIPAL CODE 1.24. VOTE NO ON B. RITA S. KING Registered Nurse MIKE KAZAKEVITCH Business Owner LOWELL PONTE Journalist PAUL KING Libertarian Party Vice Chair THOMAS MANGUM Real Estate Investor PR-09AO-3 SD 630-032 PR-09AO-4 SD 630-033 REBUTTAL TO THE ARGUMENT AGAINST PROPOSITION B Historically, the City of Carlsbad has done a great job of building a strong revenue base to support services needed by the community. City budgets have always been balanced. In fact surplus funds have been accumulated over the years and are available to accelerate building of needed facilities. The City's sound financial condition is proof that spending has never been out of control. The people have always had a say in what is needed in Carlsbad, especially since the adoption of the Growth Management Plan (GMP) in 1986. The voters have already spoken when they adopted the GMP. • Proposition B is not a new tax, • Proposition B will allow the use of funds that already exist. • Growth will still pay its own way. • Needed facilities can be built sooner. • Proposition B will not increase taxes. The public will continue to have a strong say in the construction of new city facilities. Numerous public hearings are required before any project is approved. Law requires an environmental review. Vote YES on Proposition B to make Carlsbad an even better place to live. CLAUDE LEWIS Mayor RAMONA FINNILA City Council Member ANN KULCHIN Mayor Pro-Tern PR-09AO-5 SD 630-034 CITY OF CARLSBAD Proposition C (This proposition will appear on the ballot in the following form.) Do the voters of the City of Carlsbad approve spending . city funds from various sources including the General * Fund in an amount over $1 million to construct capital facilities including a swimming pool complex, trails linkages and open space, a City/Safety Training Facility and a portion of Cannon Road, east of College (Reach 4)? This Proposition requires approval by a simple majority (50% plus one vote) of the voters to pass. CITY ATTORNEY'S IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS THE WAY IT IS NOW: Existing federal, state or local law requires that each real property acquisition or capital improvement project go through an extensive budgeting and approval process. Depending on the nature of the acquisition or project, it can be financed by special funds, general funds, or a combination of both. Special funds are generated from special taxes or development fees, which can only be used for the purpose for which they were imposed. General funds are generated from general taxes or general fees, which can be used for any municipal purpose. Most real property acquisitions or capital improvement projects are paid for from special funds. However, real property acquisitions or capital improvement projects requiring the expenditure of over $1 million from general funds are subject to Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1 .24, which requires a majority vote of the citizens for such expenditures. THE PROPOSAL: The Proposal seeks voter approval under Carlsbad Municipal Code Chapter 1 .24 for the expenditure of general funds over $1 million to finance or help finance the construction of: • A swimming pool complex; • Trails linkages and open space; • A City/Safety Training Facility; • A portion of Cannon Road, east of College (Reach 4). If approved by a majority vote, the City Council may authorize the expenditure of over $1 million from general funds for the development of each of these projects. A majority vote does not require this expenditure but instead, authorizes the City Council to use this source of funds for these projects. If Proposition B, which also appears on this ballot, is approved, then the City Council would have authority to spend general funds in excess of $1 million on the specified projects, regardless of the outcome of Proposition C. If Proposition B is not approved, then the City Council would not have the authority to spend general funds in excess of $1 million on the specified projects, unless this Proposition C is approved by the voters. A "YES" VOTE MEANS: If you vote "yes", you wish to authorize the City Council to approve spending general funds in an amount over $1 million to finance or help finance the specified projects. A "NO" VOTE MEANS: If you vote "no", you do not wish to authorize the City Council to approve spending general funds in an amount over $1 million to finance or help finance the specified projects. HOW PROPOSITION "C" GOT ON A BALLOT. At its August 6, 2002 meeting, the City Council voted to place Proposition C before the voters to decide whether general funds in excess of $1 million should be used to finance or help finance the specified projects. FISCAL IMPACT: Proposition C does not require the expenditure of general funds but instead authorizes the City Council to use general funds in excess of $1 million to finance or help finance the specified projects. These specified projects have not been designed and their exact costs will be determined during the design, permitting, budgeting and public hearing processes. PR-09AO-6 SD 630-035 ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF PROPOSITION C THIS PROPOSITION CREATES NO NEW TAXES. IT ALLOWS THE CITY TO USE THE TAXES ALREADY RECEIVED IN A WAY THAT BENEFITS THE COMMUNITY. The Growth Management Plan (GMP) requires developers, not existing residents and businesses, to pay for new facilities such as parks and roads. Unfortunately the money is not collected from developers until development occurs. This means that the construction of facilities may lag behind need. This proposition allows the City to advance funding for certain projects ahead of developer funding, and invest additional tax revenues to enhance public benefit or construct projects that would not be a developer responsibility. A YES vote on Proposition C will provide money for the following projects: • SWIMMING POOL COMPLEX - a second swimming pool is needed now. Additional funds must be allocated to create a facility that will serve the needs of our community. A YES vote allows the City to allocate additional funds to this project. • TRAILS AND OPEN SPACE - Carlsbad residents have repeatedly said that creating trails and preserving open space is their top priority. A YES vote will provide funding for both trail linkages and open space acquisition projects. • SAFETY TRAINING FACILITY - The City's police officers and firefighters must constantly train to maintain a high degree of readiness. A YES vote will provide funding to build a facility to train our safety forces, and upgrade existing facilities and programs. • CANNON ROAD EAST OF COLLEGE - This section of Cannon Road is needed to connect Cannon Road from Carlsbad to Oceanside. This will take traffic congestion off College Avenue in northeast Carlsbad and El Camino Real near Highway 78. A YES vote will provide money to complete this project. We urge you to vote YES on Proposition C.
