Champaign County voters given say in $2 million Budget deficit solution – WICS (Springfield)

Voters are being asked whether they support raising the county sales tax, increasing property taxes or reducing county services. “If the answer to all of these questions is no and we do expect that to be the answer, we can rest easier at night knowing that voters explicitly said they we’re okay with reductions. Then we can go to department heads and directors fully knowing that voters asked us for those reductions,” County Board Co-Chair Emily Rodriguez said.
