Who can vote in this election?
Only residents of the City of St. George are eligible to vote in this election on December 7, 2024.
What is on the ballot?
The residents of St. George can vote to ensure the 2% sales tax revenue collected in St. George will stay in St. George to fund essential city services.
Is this a new tax?
No, this is not a new tax. The tax transfer would ensure that the current 2% sales tax revenue collected in St. George stay here to fund essential city services.
What is the tax transfer for?
Without this sales tax revenue, St. George would lack the financial foundation needed for fundamental services and infrastructure maintenance, which Baton Rouge will no longer provide once St. George is incorporated.
