Here is a relevant part of the article that discusses their decision: ----------------- In a report to the council, city staff said that if the proposition passed, the city could lose same control of the utility. "If approved, Proposition 7 will eliminate the ability of this community to decide the timing and cost impacts associated with the 'greening' of its energy portfolio," the report states. "This measure violates the city's legislative principle of preserving local control of the city's utility by the city council by making [publicly owned utilities] subject to the jurisdiction of the California Energy Commission and the California Public Utilities Commission." http:~Jwww. pasadenaweekly.cam~cros~storyldetail~pasadena_council_appases_sola r_in itiative~~~~5~ I live in Alameda and appose Prap 7 far many reasons, but it has a wide lead already because mast voters don't know anything about it. I hope you look into it. The sooner cities make a public statement against it, the better. Already bath the Democratic and Republican party have openly opposed it as well as the NRDC and the Union of Concerned scientists. http:~Jcaliforniaphoton.camJpalic}r~prapasitiansJprap7Jinde.html 1lictoria Ash ley ~u~t~m~r ~~mmunic~ti~n~ 1 of ~ l1~~08 8:~~ A ~ityF of AluY7~~a: EFII~IairY~ htt~~ :~l~li~trt~.ca~z7c~I~~ ca~Y~1~~e~~lce~~t~il.~h~ date F~~m T~x~ ~9J09J~~0~ Vllei~iger-, ~~;~~ Lara Details ~ Ms. A~hle}~, ~ Resolution a~pa~iing Pra~a~itian 7 will be an an upcoming City ~auncil agenda in ~cta~er.
