Toledo City Council to vote on placing income tax increase proposal on March ballot

12/9/2019

 
Picture
By Tim Schneider, Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce
​At its regular meeting at 4:00 p.m. on December 10, Toledo City Council is expected to vote on Ordinance 543-19 which would approve Mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz’s request to submit for the March 17 ballot an increase of the city’s temporary income tax from 0.75 to 1.25 percent. If ultimately approved by Toledo voters the tax would be for a period of 10 years and bring the city’s total income tax rate to 2.75 percent effective July 2020. The proposal would allocate 40 percent of the revenue from the 1.25 percent tax for capital spending and the remaining 60 percent for operations, and would eliminate the ability to transfer the capital portion of that revenue for operating expenses. It would not change the existing allocation associated with the 1.50 percent that is permanent. Council must act on the ordinance by December 18 in order for the issue to be placed on the March ballot.
