The full story
The Town Council adopted Resolution 2024-17 on Dec. 11 to amend Springdale’s Recreation and Arts (RAP) tax policy. Staff proposed — and council approved — a framework that divides anticipated RAP revenue roughly 50/50 between physical projects (recreation and arts facilities) and programs/activities (cultural or nonprofit-led programming). Individual organizations may request up to 25% of the total in a category; the council retains discretion to fund larger capital projects or bank funds for multi-year town projects.
