Residents questioned developers who funded the city\u2019s general plan update, according to archived Sacramento Bee stories, which reported that the state Fair Political Practices Commission launched an investigation and subpoenaed records on the issue.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>At the time, then-City Manager William Kime said without contributions from developers it could have taken upwards of 10 years to update the general plan. The update was slated to cost $500,000, but Folsom could only afford to set aside only $50,000 a year for the plan.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Fast-forward four decades, Folsom is now considering a new charter amendment, proposed by the 2026 Ad Hoc Charter Review Committee, to potentially bring balance between developer-funded political action committees, often called PACs, and Folsom residents.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Developer dollars are still involved in Folsom politics through independent expenditures by PACs, which include not only developers but others such as public safety groups, to support City Council candidates. While Aceituno, a charter committee member and former councilmember, is not opposed to developers spending money on elections, he said, he\u2019s concerned about the balance between Folsom residents and developer interests.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Aceituno\u2019s concerns of imbalance come as independent expenditures are unlimited and individual contributions are capped at $150 by Folsom\u2019s charter. Independent expenditures aren\u2019t capped because of the U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s 2010 ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission where justices found limits on independent expenditures \u2014 the use of dollars to advocate for or against a candidate independent of a campaign \u2014 infringes on free speech.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>PACs ramp up spending on Folsom elections<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Through independent expenditures, PACs spent more than $200,000 on the last Folsom City Council election, according to expenditure reports. That\u2019s up from the nearly $79,000 PACs spent in 2022. Individual contributions to candidates were about $145,000 in 2024 and $48,000 in 2022.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The Committee for Home Ownership, sponsored by North State Building Industry Association, spent the most on independent expenditures at more than $76,000. In recent years, it collected donations from groups like Cresleigh Homes, Taylor Builders and Tri Pointe Homes.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Since name recognition often helps candidates succeed on Election Day, Aceituno said developer-funded independent expenditures \u2014 such as campaign mailers supporting candidates aligned with their goals \u2014 can indirectly shape City Council decisions.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe business interests want to develop quickly,\u201d he said. \u201cThe residents say, \u2018Well, you can develop but let\u2019s get our other things in place as we go along, make sure we get enough schools, make sure we get parks, make sure we get enough access to the freeway.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Three of Folsom\u2019s five current councilmembers had more independent expenditure support than their election opponent.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Leveling the playing field\u2019<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Independent expenditures are separate from individual campaigns, and are not direct donations, so a candidate has no say over what messaging is provided or what groups support their campaigns.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was walking and knocking on doors one day, and I walked up and in sticking out of somebody\u2019s mailbox is a picture of me that I\u2019d never seen on a flyer that I\u2019ve never seen,\u201d said Mayor Justin Raithel, who benefited from at least $49,000 in independent expenditure support last election cycle.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/sandiegorelocationnews.com\/index.php\/2026\/05\/26\/aaron-nola-aims-to-continue-phillies-strong-pitching-in-clash-vs-padres\/\">Aaron Nola aims to continue Phillies\u2019 strong pitching in clash vs. Padres<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>While PACs advocated on behalf of Raithel, he said, he supports giving residents more leverage in terms of money spent on elections, which could be possible with the proposed charter amendment that would increase the $150 limit to $750.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><strong>\u00bb\u00a0Folsom news in your inbox: <\/strong>Get our free Folsom email newsletter here<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The increase could help bridge the gap between individual contribution dollars and independent expenditures, Aceituno said.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI brought it up as a way of leveling the playing field,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Folsom last asked voters to, but it failed by about 400 votes, a little more than 1 percentage point.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you talk to people about campaign contribution limits, their natural instinct is to say, \u2018Yes, we should have them,\u2019\u201d Aceituno said. \u201c&#8230; People don\u2019t understand there is a big difference between an individual candidate\u2019s campaign limit and the fact that PACs are unlimited for independent expenditures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Last election cycle mailers funded by independent expenditures were sent out in opposition of City Council candidates Barbara Leary and Hla Elkhatib. Leary, who was active with the Sierra Club and won her race, said the mailers were sent out shortly before the election. She believes the mailers mischaracterized her viewpoints by taking Sierra Club newsletters out of context.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Although Leary\u2019s campaign raised about double her PAC-supported candidate, she didn\u2019t have enough money to share her perspective, and keep up with independent expenditures.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re a candidate who raised (less than the independent expenditures), you don\u2019t have the resources at the last minute to put together a counter to that message,\u201d Leary said.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Jag Nagendra, a City Council candidate for Folsom\u2019s 3rd District, also said the change could help new candidates.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cRaising to $750 will bring up the financial strength of any new candidate who can probably run against an incumbent,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>Timeline for potential charter change<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The City Council\u2019s next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, where the charter amendment will likely be discussed.
