Sales-Tax Sharing Will Be Discussed
- Share via
Spreading the wealth will be the topic of discussion Saturday as city and state officials debate the pros and cons of cities sharing sales tax revenues as a way to curb the development of agricultural land and open spaces.
Beginning with a coffee at 9:30 a.m. at Camarillo City Hall, 601 Carmen Drive, representatives from the Local Agency Formation Commission and the city of Camarillo will discuss the issue and address audience questions.
The two-hour debate, open to the public free of charge, will formally begin at 10 a.m.
The issue of sharing tax revenues has been heralded by some as a way to save Ventura County’s agricultural land while others have criticized it for diminishing local authority, civic identity and the democratic rights of residents.
