Nevada City Calif. – Nevada County Elections has assigned Measure P to the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District bond measure and Measure Q to the Nevada City short-term rental measure for the Nov. 3, 2026 General Election ballot.
Measure P- Tahoe Truckee Unified School District
The ballot question for Measure P will appear as follows:
To protect quality education in local schools, continue supporting math, science, engineering, technology, arts, and skilled trades/job training programs preparing students for success in college/careers; attracting/retaining highly qualified teachers; and maintaining manageable class sizes, shall Tahoe Truckee Unified School District’s measure be adopted, renewing the expiring
$148 annual school parcel tax with a $40 increase, for nine years, with senior exemptions, annual inflation adjustments, independent oversight/ audits, and all funds (approximately $7,000,000 annually) benefiting local students?
Measure P will require approval of two-thirds of voters voting on the measure to pass. Voters within the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District will see Measure P on their ballot.
Because the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District extends into more than one county, Placer County is the lead Elections Office.

Shall the measure that replaces the existing residential short-term rental registration rules with a new permitting system and more detailed permit eligibility and operating rules be adopted?
