[ ]a. (T) (ACCOUNTABILITY) This measure
will be subject to fiscal accountability
requirements mandated by law, including
independent financial audits, to ensure that
the money is spent consistent with
community priorities. ------------------------------- 28% ----- 35% ----- 21% ----- 12% ------ 4% 63% [ ]b. (T) (QUALITY OF LIFE) Sunnyvale is a
place where people desire to live and raise
families. This measure will help protect
and maintain essential City services,
including streets and roads, local parks, and
police patrols, that make our community a
safe place to live with a high quality of life. ----- 33% ----- 33% ----- 26% ------ 5% ------ 2% 67%

[ ]c. (T) (RESPONSE TIMES - CRIME)
Response times for 911 calls are critical for
stopping crime, protecting victims and
saving lives. This measure will retain
neighborhood patrols and officers on the
street to maintain low crime rates in
Sunnyvale, keeping our community a safe
place to live, run a business, and raise a
family. ------------------------------------------------ 34% ----- 32% ----- 27% ------ 5% ------ 2% 66% [ ]d. (LOCAL CONTROL) We have seen in
the past that we cannot count on the state or
federal government to take care of our
needs during financially unstable times like
these. By law, all funds raised by this
measure are legally required to be used in
Sunnyvale, ensuring local control of our tax
dollars and a guaranteed source of funding
for essential city services during uncertain
times like these. -------------------------------------- 27% ----- 39% ----- 24% ------ 7% ------ 3% 66% [ ]e. (HOMELESSNESS) Homelessness is a
serious problem in the Bay Area and
Sunnyvale is no exception. This measure
will help the City address homelessness by
continuing its successful partnership with
County and local non-profit agencies that
provide services to people experiencing
homelessness in the City. It will help
provide individualized services to connect
unhoused residents with available non-
profit and regional services, including
emergency shelter, health and social
services, and substance abuse treatment.
This will also ensure our parks and other
public areas are safe and secure for
everyone. --------------------------------------------- 37% ----- 32% ----- 20% ------ 9% ------ 2% 68% [ ]f. (INFLATION ADJUSTMENT) This
measure contains language requiring that
the threshold of $3 million— above which
the property transfer tax applies— is
increased regularly to account for inflation.
This will make sure that as home prices go
up, the vast majority of home sales will be
exempted from the tax in the future. -------------- 20% ----- 33% ----- 29% ----- 13% ------ 5% 53%

[ ]g. (T) (PARITY/MODEST) Sunnyvale’s
current property transfer tax is lower than
similar local communities. This measure
would simply increase the tax to match the
rate charged in other cities, such as
Mountain View, Palo Alto, and San Jose.
And, it is only assessed when a home or
property is sold, representing a small
fraction of the sale price. --------------------------- 18% ----- 30% ----- 37% ----- 10% ------ 4% 48%
(ASK SPLIT SAMPLE B ONLY)
[ ]h. (NOT EVERYONE PAYS) This type of
property tax will not be paid by everyone in
Sunnyvale. It will only be applied when a
property is sold by the seller or buyer, and
will represent only a small fraction of the
sale price. It will not increase the amount
that homeowners pay on an annual basis. -------- 25% ----- 37% ----- 26% ------ 8% ------ 4% 62%
(ASK SPLIT SAMPLE C ONLY)
[ ]i. (MOST SALES UNAFFECTED) This
property transfer tax only impacts
properties sold for over $3 million dollars,
including commercial properties and only
the most expensive homes in the City. In
fact, it would not impact 90 percent of
home sales in Sunnyvale. --------------------------- 33% ----- 28% ----- 24% ----- 13% ------ 2% 61%
(ASK SPLIT SAMPLE D ONLY)
[ ]j. (MOST SALES UNAFFECTED WITH
BRACKETS) This property transfer tax
only impacts properties sold for over $3
million dollars, including commercial
properties and only the most expensive
homes in the City. In fact, it would not
impact 90 percent of home sales in
Sunnyvale. Furthermore, it starts off as a
small percentage for properties over $3
million and increases for the most
expensive property sales to ensure they pay
their fair share for city services. ------------------ 29% ----- 28% ----- 25% ----- 14% ------ 5% 56%

[ ]b. (T) (WASTE W/ PENSIONS) Instead of
pushing more tax measures, the City should
just cut unnecessary spending, including
expensive pensions and healthcare benefits
for existing and retired City employees.
We don’t need to raise taxes again,
allowing bureaucrats and politicians to
waste our tax dollars. ------------------------------- 30% ----- 21% ----- 33% ----- 11% ------ 4% 51% [ ]c. (PANDEMIC/ECONOMY) We are still
dealing with an economy that was rocked
by the pandemic, runaway inflation, rising
gas prices, and a housing crisis. The cost of
living is too high as it is. This is not the
time to increase any type of tax, especially
one that will only impact the housing
market. ------------------------------------------------ 33% ----- 25% ----- 31% ------ 7% ------ 3% 59%
(SPLIT SAMPLE A ONLY)
[ ]d. (T) (PROPERTY TRANSFER TAX –
HOUSING COSTS) It already costs
between two and three million dollars to
buy a modest home in Sunnyvale. Plus,
we’re already taxed by both the county and
the City of Sunnyvale, meaning this
measure would raise the real property
transfer tax to a total of up to (SPLIT
SAMPLE C: $750) (SPLIT SAMPLE D:
$1,500) per one hundred thousand of sales
value. We shouldn’t pass this measure and
make the cost of buying a home even more
expensive for hard-working families. ------------- 41% ----- 26% ----- 26% ------ 4% ------ 3% 67% [ ]e. (SENIORS) This type of measure places
too great a burden on seniors and
homeowners whose main asset is their
home. Specifically, the property transfer
tax will affect their ability to sell their
home and the return on their investment at
a time when our area is becoming more and
more unaffordable. ---------------------------------- 37% ----- 24% ----- 30% ------ 6% ------ 3% 62%

[ ]f. (PT) (HOUSING) Buying a house is
completely out of reach for low-income
families and increasingly out of reach for
middle class families. We should not be
supporting any measures that make buying
and selling homes more difficult with
increased taxes when properties are bought
or sold. ------------------------------------------------ 33% ----- 24% ----- 31% ------ 7% ------ 6% 56% [ ]g. (
T) (RESERVES) The City of Sunnyvale
has tens of millions of dollars in its
reserves, more than enough money to
balance its budget and pay to maintain City
services. It should spend its reserves first
before raising taxes. --------------------------------- 23% ----- 37% ----- 28% ------ 7% ------ 5% 60%
