Council conducts second reading of Ordinance 456 to increase Local Option Tax by 1%
Summary
On Nov. 20, 2013 the Sun Valley City Council conducted the second reading of Ordinance 456, which would increase the Local Option Tax by 1% (a measure approved by city voters in November 2012). The motion to read by title only passed on a 3–0 roll call.
The Sun Valley City Council moved to conduct the second reading of Ordinance 456, "Increase Local Option Tax by 1%," and to have the ordinance read by title only. Council Member Nils Ribi moved the motion and Council Member Michelle Griffith seconded; a roll-call vote recorded three ayes and no nays and the mayor declared the motion approved.
The ordinance was noted in the minutes as having been approved by Sun Valley voters in November 2012. Council members and staff then discussed the precise wording of the ordinance; that discussion involved City Clerk Hannah L. Stauts and City Attorney Adam King and focused on language clarification rather than on changing the tax rate. City Attorney Adam King later read Ordinance 456 by title only during the meeting.
