NICKERSON, Kan. — The City of Nickerson is strongly encouraging residents to attend or submit their thoughts and ideas concerning the city’s $.01 sales tax.

The tax is part of a City Council workshop Monday evening. The sales tax sunsets in 2022 and could go to a vote again in November. The tax generates about $65,000 per year and was first used to build the new community building. Since then, it’s funded numerous sewer and park projects.

The city last discussed the sales tax revenue in September of 2020 and stressed the need for public input on its future.

The workshop begins at 5:30 p.m. at the Nickerson city offices.
