Registered voters in White County have an opportunity to vote September 13 on the proposed 1 percent, county-wide sales tax increase. To cast your vote, go to your normal voting precinct location tomorrow between 7:30 A.M. and 7:30 P.M. If you aren't sure where to go to vote, visit the Arkansas Secretary of State's Voter View Web Site and enter your information. Or, you may contact the White Co. Clerk's office at 501-279-6204.
If you still need more information on what this tax increase will support, do some online research. A good place to start is to compare the two major opposing Web sites. The Moving White County Forward Committee's commercials on the radio send listeners to WCRoads on Facebook for information in favor of the 1 percent tax increase. The Citizens for Responsible Taxation, who oppose the tax, also have a Web site with information against the sales tax proposal. You can read the ordinance the Quorum Court passed in June to set the election HERE.
Don't let this opportunity to exercise your right to vote pass you by. Inform yourself on the issue, and vote for or against the bypass tax on September 13.
