A vote in favor of Measure J would authorize an additional 1% sales tax within the City of Dixon. If the measure passes, the sales tax rate in the City of Dixon would increase from 7.375% to 8.375%. It is estimated that the proposed sales tax will provide an additional Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) in annual local funding. This sales tax is a “general tax,” meaning that revenues raised from the tax would go into the City’s general fund to pay for any lawful City program, service, or improvement. The tax would be collected in the same manner as existing sales taxes. All ordinances and resolutions related to Measure J are available for review with the City Clerk or can be found at: https://www.cityofdixonca.gov/departments/Elections.
