Wyandotte County sales tax proposals set for November ballot

Ballot decision scheduled

Proposed sales tax increases in Wyandotte County are set to appear on the November ballot. The decision will go to county voters during the November election.

What voters will decide

The proposals would ask voters to approve increases in sales taxes. The announcement does not identify the proposed tax rates, the services or projects connected to the increases, or the amount of revenue they could generate.

What to look for before voting

Voters will need to review the final ballot language and any election materials explaining the proposals. Those materials will show how each question is worded and what action a “yes” or “no” vote would take.

The November ballot is the next formal step for the proposed increases. The ballot questions will give voters the opportunity to accept or reject them.
