Ballots arrive; Town Hall Thursday

Check your mailbox – ballots are arriving for the City’s three-eighth cent sales tax election.

Overland Park is holding a special election for a dedicated sales tax this month.

If approved, the sales tax would generate $20.5 million to fund improvements to the City’s streets and the City’s traffic management system.

The City held the first of three town hall meetings for residents interested in learning more about the election last week.

There’s another opportunity this week. Call in to a tele-town hall on Thursday, June 8 at 6 p.m. to ask your questions about the OP Moves sales tax election to a panel of subject matter experts. Just dial 817-288-4144 and enter the meeting ID, 7440.

Or, join us in-person again next week, on Tuesday, June 13 at 6:30 p.m. at Matt Ross Community Center, 8101 Marty, to hear a presentation on the potential impact on City infrastructure and have your questions answered.
