E50 ¾-Cent Sales Tax Debate: Weighing the Nov. 5 Vote with Tom Prater and Andrew Baird
Manage episode 446464128 series 3560118
As the Nov. 5 general election fast approaches, voters will consider whether or not to adopt a proposed ¾-cent sales tax that would fund public safety initiatives and projects consistent with Springfield's comprehensive plan, Forward SGF. For some, this potential funding is a clear solution to gaps in the city budget while others have aired concerns about the lack of specificity when it comes to the plans the tax will go toward.
In this special election season episode, host Tom Carlson moderates a debate between former Citizens Committee co-chair Tom Prater and business owner Andrew Baird as they discuss the pros and cons of the tax.
