HUTCHINSON, Kan. — There is a public information event tonight at the Shears Technology Center at 6 p.m. on the quarter-cent sales tax renewal vote.
The quarter cent sales tax that supports street construction, property tax relief, Cosmosphere and Strataca is up for a public vote November 8. If approved, this would be the sixth time voters gave the go-ahead for the tax.
The projected $11 million generated over five years from the renewal of the sales tax would continue to be distributed so that 47% of the tax goes for Hutchinson's street program, 33% to Cosmosphere, 15% for property tax reduction, and 5% to Strataca.
