Summary

Commission staff told members they will meet with council July 20 to discuss public promotion of the sales-tax ballot question; Chief Deputy Spence Vaughn is scheduled to speak to the Chesterfield Service Club on July 21 as part of outreach.

Commission staff told members they will hold a joint meeting with the county council on July 20 at 9 a.m. to coordinate public outreach about the proposed special 1% sales and use tax and related projects. Staff framed the meeting as the forum to plan how to "promote this issue to the public," and asked commissioners to attend.

Staff member (S4) also announced that Chief Deputy Spence Vaughn will speak to the Chesterfield Service Club on July 21 as an early kickoff to public promotion. "Spence Vaughn, our chief deputy, will be speaking to the Chesterfield Service Club on the 21st," S4 said, and noted that officials planned additional outreach including a presentation at the YMCA on July 21 at 12:30 p.m.

The reminders followed the commission's approval of a wording change to a ballot question for a proposed sales-tax measure; staff said the outreach will explain what the project will do and how it would address current conditions at the existing detention center. Specific outreach materials, presentations, or timelines beyond the two announced appearances were not described in the transcript.
