Special Election Information

The Arlington Crime Control and Prevention District (ACCPD) was proposed during budget discussions for fiscal year 2008 in order to supplement current resources devoted to public safety and quality-of-life issues. The ACCPD’s boundaries reflect the boundaries of the entire city of Arlington making it a city-wide organization.

As required by state law, the City Council appointed a seven-member temporary Board of Directors to develop and approve the initial two-year crime control and budget plans for the ACCPD. The ACCPD Board and City staff worked together to develop the proposed crime control plan that includes a detailed list of city-wide crime control and prevention strategies to be supported by the ACCPD and the method of annually evaluating the effectiveness and efficiency of individual crime control and prevention strategies.

The Board conducted a public hearing and approved both the two year budget and crime control plans, and presented them to the City Council. The budgeted income during the first 12 months of collection is approximately $5.8 million. If approved by voters, implementation with initial funding would be in May 2008.

On August 28, 2007, the City Council held a public hearing to receive public input, and approved the proposed two-year crime plan and budget plan.

Arlington voters can vote on the creation of the Arlington CCPD and adoption of a 1/8% local sales and use tax to finance the CCPD on November 6, 2007.
