Tuesday night’s Plumas County Board of Supervisors meeting saw another installment of an ongoing North State trend: a flood of State of Jefferson supporters making their case for secession.
The Sacramento Bee reports that Jefferson representatives presented a hypothetical budgetary future, which included more than $70 million in property taxes.
Some board members were dubious of those and other figures, and they wound up declining to commit their support to Jefferson.
The Bee reports that Jefferson supporters in Plumas County are planning to craft legislation for the 2016 ballot to join the other five North State counties who’ve endorsed breaking away from California.
