Uniform Sales Tax Talks End Sharply
Alameda county talks on a uniform countywide sales tax collapsed amid disagreement. The Board of Supervisors and city mayors failed to reach consensus on sharing one cent of city revenue, effectively ending prospects for a countywide measure by May 1. Cities pledged to tighten their own tax ordinances while preserving current collection within their borders, advantaging municipal coffers and widening the gap to a potential county plan. San Leandro projected about 600000 in next year sales tax, with possible growth beyond 632000 if exemptions are removed. The caucus ended with cities insisting the one cent stay in local hands and to conform only if a county ordinance would allow rapid action if a countywide plan is later approved.
