Encinitas City Council Raises Pride Flag

City council wants to raise sales tax

After a decade of egregious fiscal mismanagement and multi-million-dollar lawsuits for negligence, the city wants more of your money.

Encinitas Advocate: 

In a 4-1 vote, with Councilmember Bruce Ehlers opposed, the City Council decided Wednesday, May 22, to put the item on the Nov. 5 ballot. Adding 1 percent to the city’s 7.75 percent tax rate is expected to generate an extra $15.4 million yearly in revenue.
