| 1 | 15.2* | Opposition to Sonoma County Measure J | CC- Report | REPORT - OPPOSITION TO SONOMA COUNTY MEASURE J
BACKGROUND: A county-wide initiative entitled “Prohibition on Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations” was placed on the November 5, 2024 general election ballot via the initiative process. The ballot initiative is also known as Measure J. The proposed ordinance before the electorate would require a simple majority to enact Measure J into law.

The measure would apply to the unincorporated areas of Sonoma County outside of the coastal zone.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Communications and Intergovernmental Relations Office that the Council, by motion, oppose Measure J on the Sonoma County ballot for the November 5, 2024 general election. If the Council adopts a formal position on Measure J, staff will send an advocacy letter to the proponents and opponents of the measure expressing the Council’s official position on the measure. | approved | Pass |
