Avon Council weighs 0.25% tax hike for recreation plan
Avon voters will decide on a 0.25 percent income tax increase to fund a YMCA run recreation center and a 3,500 seat stadium plus a Frontier League baseball team. The plan would lift Avon’s income tax to 1.75 percent, yielding about $1.2 million annually, with $7.6 million collected in 2006. Mayor Jim Smith promotes the package, while negotiations with Frontier League continue.
