Laurie Tables Proposed Law Enforcement Sales Tax

Laurie voters won’t have to worry about an additional sales tax when the April election rolls around.  The city had been considering asking voters to approve a ¼% tax to help provide additional funding for law enforcement.  The issue was discussed at two meetings prior to the Thanksgiving holiday.  Clerk Ron Clarke tells us that at this time the issue has been tabled and is no longer being pursued for the April ballot.
