Commissioner says county has a marijuana tax but has not collected it
Summary
At the Dec. 7 meeting, a commissioner said Glacier County has an existing marijuana tax on businesses and users that the county has "never collected," and urged putting collection on the board's workplan.
A commissioner told the Glacier County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday that the county has a marijuana tax on businesses (and, as stated, "the people" who use it) but that the county "just have never collected it." The speaker urged the board to address collection of the tax.
The comment came during a brief round of commissioner business; the presiding commissioner agreed that the tax should be pursued. The transcript contains no detail about the tax rate, when it was adopted, or the potential revenue; the board did not take formal action on the matter at the meeting.
Next steps recorded in the meeting: commissioners discussed putting the issue on the agenda for a future meeting so staff can provide more information and options.
