Buena Park Leaders Put Sales Tax Hike on November Ballot
Voters in Buena Park may decide on a 1% sales tax increase in November after city leaders unanimously voted in favor of adding a ballot measure asking residents to approve of a tax hike.
Buena Park officials say they need more tax dollars for the city’s police department.
This comes two weeks after a report made claims that Buena Park’s police department was severely understaffed and should hire 15 sworn officers along with 10 non-sworn staffers.
The proposal would cost taxpayers about $6 million.
