Andrews considers half cent sales tax to fund eco development

Andrews officials push an economic development sales tax to fund a near Eunice New Mexico enrichment project, with City Manager Glen Hackler saying the measure could raise about 400000 yearly and reduce poverty taxes by 14 cents. If approved in May it would take effect October 1 and first remittance by December, aided by a new economic development corporation and a rising Andrews Business and Technology Center. Local leaders anticipate minimal opposition and emphasize competitive benefits for jobs and growth.
