Free sample: decision 1 of 15

Conservation infrastructure sales tax exploration (Trust for Public Land)

Board reached consensus (no formal vote) authorizing Mayor Demings to sign a one-page letter engaging Trust for Public Land to conduct feasibility research and public opinion polling (est. ~$125,000, privately/grant funded) on a potential half-cent or full-cent infrastructure sales tax that could fund conservation land, stormwater, roads, and other capital needs. A 1-cent tax was estimated to raise ~$528,000,000 with ~84% paid by visitors/non-residents.

The other decisions are listed below by title. The full write-up, verbatim conditions, and the audio at each vote are in Pro.
