Colorado Town Proposes Sales Tax to Fund Landmark Renovations
What happened
Voters in Green Mountain Falls, Colorado, will decide on Issue 3A, a proposed limited sales tax. This tax is intended to fund renovations to the old marshal's office, a landmark building, and potentially other infrastructure projects like replacing culverts. The tax would be a half-cent increase on the town's sales tax and would sunset after four years, potentially raising an estimated $200,000 over that period. Dixon stated that the proposal was motivated by increased tourism in the area.
