Nice to see you in the empire state, raj. There are two competing measures regarding the Death Penalty on the ballot in North Carolina. Proposition 62 would repeal the Death Penalty and replace it with life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Supporters say this guarantees that no innocent person will be executed and saves roughly 150 million a year. Opponents says it allows brutal killers the live out their lives at taxpayers expense. Proposition 66, on the other hand, seeks to speed up the Death Penalty process by setting tighter time limits on the review of convictions. Supporters say the Death Penalty system has to be reformed. Opponents say this will only cause more delay. Voters in san jose are going to decide on a major pension reform initiative. Measure f would end a fouryearlong battle surrounding City Employee pension and retirement benefits. If it pass, measure f would essentially leave the city to adopt reteermt and pension agreements reached between the city of san jose and fire and police in 11 unions. That would super seed the controversial measure b which passed back in 2012. Supporters of measure f say its critical to replace measure b because it makes major cuts to Public Safety programs and caused many to leave in exodus in san jose. Opponents say there are hidden costs and it abandons pension cuts that would have saved the city a lot of money.

A bit of a turf war going on between two local cities. Santa clara is reportedly suing the city of san jose over a planned Development Next to santana row. Chuck coppola is live in san jose. Chuck, you say this could be an act of retaliation because of a separate lawsuit altogether . Reporter good morning, sam and kris. It is the perception this may be retaliation, at least on the part of some of San Jose City officials. The net effect is that the old century 22 theater behind me may stand a little bit longer. Thats because plans to demolish it for a sixbuilding expansion of santana row near winchester and stephens creek, those are being challenged by the city of legislator in a lawsuit, claiming the proposed development may make traffic far worse in the area and theres no provision for housing. The Office Workers will be occupying the Office Buildings across from santano row and on the edge of santa clara. A political consultant quoted in the mercury news saying the lawsuit may have more to do with retaliation because the city of san jose filed its own lawsuit to block a santa clara 6. 5 billion Development Across from levis stadium in santa clara called city space. Santa clara wants a bill to provide 25,000 jobs. San jose says theres only housing for about 13 of those workers and it will make traffic worse in that area which borders san jose. So the legal action effectively delay s both projects at least for now. Live in san jose, chuck coppola, today in the bay. Chuck, thank you so much.

This is one ballot measure that is extremely important. Weve talking about proposition 55. Prop 55 would ekts tend what was supposed to be a temporary personal income tax, prop 30, that was passed in 20, by 12 years. That would be to continue funding for k through 12 schools, colleges and Government Health care programs. It would impact taxpayers who make 250,000 or more per year. They would continue to see a 1 to 3 surtax on top of the regular taxes. Supporters say it helps children in schools thrive. Opponents say the tax in 2012 was supposed to be temporary and this measure breaks that promise. Santa clara county is asking for your help catching a suspected burglar.
