Great City: "Head Tax" Brownbag Lunch, Thursday, August 13th

“Head Tax” Brownbag Lunch

Please join Great City as we discuss the recently proposed repeal of the “head tax” with City Councilmember Tim Burgess, Rebecca Deehr, and Renee Staton. The “head tax”, or “Employee Hours Tax”, is an annual $25 tax levied on employees who commute to work in single occupancy vehicles. Originally included as part of the funding structure for the Bridging the Gap program in 2006, City Council will be considering a repeal of the tax in the fall. Join us as we discuss how the tax works, what it funds, and what alternatives to funding are being proposed to replace it.

Great City’s brownbag lunch forum series is generously hosted by GGLO.
