Sales tax, other projects expected on ballot
A sales tax in St. Paul and several other projects around the Twin Cities will be on the ballot for Minnesotans Tuesday.
ST. PAUL, Minn. (FOX 9) - St. Paul voters approved an increase in the sales tax to help the city pay for street repairs in the city.
A 2019 report laid out the bleak state of the city's roads. Last year, officials estimated a sales tax increase of one percentage point would generate nearly $1 billion over 20 years. Making the expensive and difficult road repair project more feasible.
Voters approved the measure by a 60% to 40% margin.
Here are the results of the St. Paul ballot question.
