Sonoma County has approved a new sales tax measure for the March 2024 ballot. Supervisors advanced a half-cent sales tax ballot measure for enhanced fire protection, paramedic services and disaster response. If approved by a majority of voters, the initiative would raise approximately $60-million annually, divided by 31 Sonoma County fire agencies. It could help out with wildfire prevention, preparedness, and response; recruitment; and essential updates among other things. The Board will finalize the process to put the measure on the ballot at their meeting on September 26th.
