Summary

AB 699 would make local governments send a clear information sheet about any tax or bond measure that has multiple rates or issues bonds. The sheet must list the purpose, all tax rates, how long the tax lasts, and cost estimates, and it can be mailed or sent electronically. It also lets officials replace ballot‑level tax details with a short phrase that directs voters to the county voter guide for more information.
