Perrin to organize community forum on Public Safety tax renewal after committee review
Summary
Council Member Perrin presented a fact sheet clarifying what the Public Safety Tax funds; the Finance Committee agreed to request a community forum and Perrin will work with the mayor’s office to schedule and promote it.
Council Member Perrin told the Finance Committee that he had circulated a fact-based one-page information sheet explaining what the Public Safety Tax generates and a breakdown of how its revenues are spent. Committee members agreed a public forum should be held so residents can review the tax, its uses and the timing of any renewal.
Perrin said he will coordinate with the mayor’s office to schedule and promote the forum. The committee did not record a formal vote on the tax renewal at the July 14 meeting; members instead agreed to the outreach step to inform the community and gather input.
The one-page information sheet was described as a factual summary of revenue sources and spending priorities for the Public Safety Tax. The committee did not provide additional details about the forum date, format, or the specific spending categories beyond confirming that the document breaks down how the tax is spent.
