Four years of speculation about who was really behind the 2006 “No on J” anti-Dalidio project campaign will soon be over.

In a story first reported by Calcoastnews.com, the California Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) will on Oct. 14 release the names of those who funded Responsible Community Development, LLC, a limited liability partnership that the FPPC found was formed just to fund the anti-Measure J activities. Until now, the LLC had fought hard to keep the names of its funders secret.

The commission is expected to levy $80,000 in fines against the LLC for 16 counts of voter fraud. Measure J was an initiative to allow the 131-acre mixed-use retail, housing, ag and open space development to proceed in the county after city voters had narrowly rejected the project in 2005.

Measure J passed in November 2006 with a 65 percent favorable vote.
