NEW SPEED LIMIT ON GILBERT:
The City Council on a vote of 5-0 elected to raise the speed limit on several city streets; one of those streets was Gilbert Street.  The new speed limit on Gilbert from GG Boulevard to Chapman Avenue is 30 MPH.  Another, Garden Grove Boulevard from Magnolia to Harbor is now 40MPH.

NEW HOMEOWNER TAX:
As of April 30th your Garden Grove paramedic tax
increased from 2.5% to 6% of your assessed property value according to county records.  An average home paid $100.00 per year, which generates $2.5 million a year.  The new tax will represent a 140% increase to $240.00 per year.  The increased tax will pay for new equipment, maintenance, training and salaries, which will reduce the burden on the City General Fund and raise a total of $6.7 million a year for paramedic services.
