CAPITOLA, Calif. (AP) - A survey shows Capitola voters favor extending the city's quarter-cent sales tax that expires in two years.
The City Council this week is considering City Manager Richard Hill's bid to ask voters in November to extend the tax to April 2021 to pay for police, street repairs and parks.
Seventy-five percent of the 350 likely voters surveyed last month by Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin & Associates favor extension of the tax.
Capitola's quarter-cent sales tax was approved by 60 percent of the voters in 2004 as Measure P, which expires in April 2010. It generates about $1 million a year. |
