Akron Seeks Referendum Over One Half Percent Income Tax
Opponents of Akron's new half percent income tax plan announce a November referendum to reject the ordinance. If approved, voters would overturn the tax, which Mayor Leo Berg says would raise about 2 million dollars over five years starting Oct 1. The measure, pushed by Councilman Alfred E Vuillemin, faces strong opposition amid local election concerns and broader state adoption of urban income taxes.
