Summary
Commissioners by consensus scheduled a June 22, 2026 work session at 6:00 p.m. to review SB 96, which establishes a county sales tax to offset owner‑occupied property taxes and goes into effect July 1, 2026.
The commission agreed by consensus to meet on Monday, June 22 at 6:00 p.m. to review Senate Bill 96, the recently enacted law authorizing a county sales tax intended to offset owner-occupied property taxes. Commissioners noted SB 96 takes effect July 1, 2026 and set the later evening time in recognition of public access.
No formal action on implementing the sales tax was taken at the June 4 meeting; the work session is intended to allow staff and commissioners to examine options and ordinance changes necessary for administration if the county chooses to adopt the measure.
