Proposed 1-Cent General Sales Tax Ballot Measure

The half-cent sales tax would fund advanced life support on fire engines, more police patrol and detectives, and safe recreation spaces for kids. The city estimates it costs a typical household about $50 a year, with a dedicated fund, oversight board, and public dashboard for accountability. Voters decide in about three weeks.
