City of Rancho Mirage

Shall the Charter be amended to provide that the council shall at its second regular meeting in November in non-election years and at the meeting when members are installed during election years, appoint members to serve as mayor and mayor pro tem for one year that affords each member with an equal opportunity to serve as mayor and mayor pro tem under such guidelines established by ordinance?

Shall the Charter be amended to provide that the council shall at its first regular meeting in December, or as soon thereafter in the event of delayed certification of election results, appoint members to serve as mayor and mayor pro tem for a one-year period that affords each member of the council with an equal opportunity to serve as mayor and mayor pro tem under such guidelines established by ordinance?

(ADVISORY) Shall the City of Rancho Mirage require that any future amendment or repeal of Ordinance No. 1099, which currently prohibits Neighborhood Electric Vehicles (not including golf carts) on or adjacent to certain designated streets including Highway 111, Bob Hope Drive; Country Club Drive; Da Vall Drive; Dinah Shore Drive; Frank Sinatra Drive; Gerald Ford Drive; Magnesia Falls Drive; Monterey Avenue; Plumley Road, and others, be subject to prior voter approval?

(ADVISORY) Do you approve of the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG) spending One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) or more to construct the CV Link, plus, according to the March 2015 Master Plan, an additional $1.6 million annually to operate and maintain the CV Link pathway, which CVAG proposes to extend through Rancho Mirage business and residential districts?

(ADVISORY) If CV Link were to be constructed, would you approve the City Council committing Rancho Mirage to pay for CV Link’s annual operations and maintenance expenses, which on April 6, 2015, CVAG projected Rancho Mirage’s share to be between $110,300 and $251,800 per annum as of the 9th year of operations, and continuing to increase annually at the rate of inflation?

(ADVISORY) Because in 2002 County voters approved Measure A, which is a ½ cent increase in our sales tax to be used to repair dilapidated and crumbling roads and highways in the Coachella Valley, should CVAG be allowed to divert up to $20 million dollars ($20,000,000) from this Measure A fund, to pay for the construction of the Neighborhood Electric Vehicles portion of the CV Link?
