Street Tax Questions Defeated
No new taxes in Glenwood Springs. 60 percent of the voters rejected ballot issues A and B in Tuesday’s municipal elections. Ballot issue A would have raised sales taxes by 3/4 of a cent to pay for the city’s deteriorating streets. Ballot issue B called for a 56 million dollar bond against the new tax revenue to speed up the repair process that will now be on hold while the new city council decides on another plan.
