The Sebastopol City Council is introducing a poll to find out what type of sales tax voters would support. The city is facing a nearly one-point-seven-million-dollar budget deficit and its reserves are shrinking. The council is planning to add a new sales tax, but can’t decide what services it should support. Mayor Neysa Hinton and Vice Mayor Diana Rich are recommending putting a new sales tax on the November ballot, with the added tax revenue funding the police and fire departments. Voters who answer the poll will weigh in with their own preferences.
