Measure CC: Investing in MarinHealth’s next generation

We support Measure CC

A 30-year investment in local healthcare

Measure CC would help fund critical emergency services by establishing a parcel tax of 14 cents per square foot of taxable improved building area per year to help fund healthcare facilities, including seismic upgrades, emergency treatment, mental health services, and other healthcare programs and services.

duration of the measure

Vote YES on Measure CC to:

  • Upgrade medical technology for heart attacks, strokes, and cancer

  • Modernize intensive care, trauma, and triage facilities

  • Expand ER capacity to reduce wait times and overcrowding

  • Improve outdated operating rooms, labs, and imaging facilities

  • Improve mental health, addiction, and suicide prevention services

  • Modernize hospital facilities for earthquake safety

  • Attract and retain qualified doctors, nurses, and specialists

Who controls the money?

For major projects, such as construction of new seismically compliant hospital facilities, the District would maintain ownership and financial control and would use the 30-year revenue stream to support bond financing.

While maintaining oversight and control, the District may engage its subsidiary nonprofit MarinHealth, which operates the hospital, to manage the day-to-day work of designing and constructing a project—including obtaining proposals, administering contracts, and overseeing construction. Expenditures and project decisions would remain subject to District oversight and approval.

Independent oversight and accountability

The measure requires a citizens' oversight committee, as well as annual audits and reporting, to provide additional public accountability for how the money is spent.

The Bottom Line

Taxpayer dollars remain under public oversight. The elected Marin Healthcare District Board is responsible for ensuring that the money is spent for its intended public purpose, with financial controls, audits, public reporting, and citizen oversight.
