Measure BB is a proposal on the November 5, 2024, ballot in Redwood City, California, aiming to modernize the city’s 57-year-old business license tax structure. Currently, small local businesses pay a proportionately higher tax than larger businesses. If approved, Measure BB would adjust tax rates based on business category, with higher fees for larger businesses and lower per-employee rates for small retail and commercial businesses. Additionally, all childcare providers would be exempt from the business license tax. The estimated $7 million in annual revenue generated by this measure would support general city services, including emergency response, neighborhood police patrols, street repairs, and storm drain maintenance.
