Glendale City Council had few objections last week when the acting city manager and financial director announced they were abandoning plans to lower the sales tax rate and making preparations for raising property taxes.
Mayor Jerry Weiers reviewed some background at the March 24 budget workshop when he responded to a presentation by Tom Duensing, the city’s financial director.
“You’re not contemplating that we would change our sales tax, by lowering or increasing, but keeping it the same. And a lot of us took a pretty good beating the last couple years because of that sales tax increase,” Weiers said.
