Measure C Parcel Tax
Measure C is a local funding measure for the Mendocino Coast Health Care District. Measure C was passed by local voters in the June 2018 Primary Election to ensure the continuity of essential health care in the remote communities on the Mendocino Coast. All revenue generated by Measure C must be dedicated to local health care facilities and services.
Each parcel within the Mendocino Coast Health Care District will be taxed $144 annually for 12 years, ending in 2030. The Measure C parcel tax will be levied by Mendocino County and included in annual property tax bills.
Measure C mandates an independent citizens’ oversight committee to annually review how MCHCD has spent Measure C revenue and to ensure that all Measure C funds are used for the projects and services approved by voters and are not used for administrator salaries, pensions or benefits.
The District would like to add two more members to the Measure C Oversight Committee. Interested individuals should contact Administrator Kathy Wylie at kwylie@mendocinochcd.gov or (707) 962-3175.
