Iowa City sales tax boost wins by 6 votes

May 06, 2009

Iowa City voted to jack up its tax rate by a penny by an overwhelming margin of six votes, out of 7,268 cast.

Meanwhile, several Linn County municipalities that voted down a penny sales tax increase last month approved it this time around. Now that they've voted "yes," the politicians don't want to do another re-vote next month. Funny how that works.
