Mayor raises HB 2015 public-safety funding option; council to consider 0.1% sales-tax proposal Sept. 22
Summary
Mayor Kave introduced HB 2015 as a pathway for municipal public-safety funding and presented a possible councilmanic 0.1% local sales-tax option; the council did not act and will discuss the proposal at its Sept. 22 meeting.
Mayor Kave provided information about HB 2015 and proposed that the council consider a councilmanic 0.1% local sales tax to fund broad public-safety and criminal-justice needs. The workshop minutes record the presentation as informational; the council did not vote on the concept and instead agreed to discuss it at the Sept. 22 meeting.
The transcript gives no further detail on what programs or budget lines the proposed revenue would support, whether the tax would be fixed-term or ongoing, or any revenue estimates. No public comment or formal council debate is recorded in the workshop minutes.
Next step: the council will place the HB 2015 discussion on the Sept. 22 meeting agenda for additional information and potential action.
