Ballot measures part of discussion at next council meeting
At their next meeting, on Tuesday, Oct. 6, town councilors are expected to discuss two ballot referendum questions that, if passed, will have a significant impact on local government and services. The proposed initiatives are LD 974, “An Act to Decrease the Automobile Excise Tax and Promote Energy Efficiency,” and LD 976, the so-called “Taxpayer Bill of Rights II” or “TABOR II,” which would limit state and local government spending and require voter approval ”” by referendum ”” for any spending over those limits, or to increase state taxes. Both will appear on the November ballot.
