What happened
Corpus Christi voters are deciding whether to continue a one-eighth-cent sales tax to fund the city's Crime Control and Prevention District for another 10 years. This tax currently funds about 15% of the police department's staffing. If the vote fails, the police department would have to reshuffle operations and service levels would decrease.
