Local option sales tax and two budget/infrastructure workshops discussed in this week's BOCC meetingsImportant items were discussed at Board of County Commissioners committee meeting on Mon., Mar. 25 (see video). Administrative agenda item 14 referenced a proposed one-cent infrastructure sales tax referendum to address the need for more diversified funding to support county infrastructure projects. The item passed without objection to the consent agenda and was approved by unanimous vote at the Thurs., Mar. 28 BOCC regular meeting. The referendum will appear on the ballot Aug. 27.
