With Hillsborough's 1-Cent Tax Ruled Unconstitutional, How Does That Affect The County's Transportation Issues?
On this week’s Florida Matters, we’re talking about what’s next for transportation in Hillsborough County, after the Florida Supreme Court struck down the county’s transportation sales tax.
In 2018, 57% of Hillsborough County voters approved a 1-cent sales tax to fund improvements — everything from sidewalks to better transit.
Now, voters might get to have their say on a replacement tax in 2022.
You’ll hear from Beth Alden, the executive director of the Hillsborough County Metropolitan Planning Organization, and Veronica Brezina-Smith, a reporter for the Tampa Bay Business Journal.
