It’s Time for Action!

it’s time for action on 2019 380!

There are rumors a Council Member will try to WITHDRAW the Sales Tax Referendum at the City Council meeting on Tuesday! If successful, it would start the entire process over and we can’t let this happen!!

Although 2019-380 has been deferred, it can be brought to a vote by Council Members or Council President Aaron Bowman at Tuesday’s City Council Meeting. We need to show up in force next Tuesday at the City Council meeting! Remember, your efforts are amplified over and over again when we raise our voices together.
