Title
AN ORDINANCE DECLARING THE RESULTS OF THE AUGUST 2, 2016, PRIMARY ELECTION FOR THE CITY OF LEE'S SUMMIT, MISSOURI.
Body
Issue/Request:
An election was held on August 2, 2016 for the City of Lee's Summit.
The two questions were:
QUESTION 1
Shall the City of Lee’s Summit, Missouri, discontinue applying and collecting the local sales tax on the titling of motor vehicles, trailers, boats, and outboard motors that were purchased from a source other than a licensed Missouri dealer?
Approval of this measure will result in a reduction of local revenue to provide for vital services for the City of Lee’s Summit; and it will place Missouri dealers of motor vehicles, outboard motors, boats, and trailers at a competitive disadvantage to non-Missouri dealers of motor vehicles, outboard motors, boats, and trailers.
QUESTION 2
Shall the City of Lee’s Summit, Missouri continue a sales tax of one-quarter (1/4) of one percent (1%) for the purpose of providing funding for local parks for the City for a period of fifteen (15) years beginning on April 1, 2018?
Proposed City Council Motion:
FIRST MOTION: I move for second reading of AN ORDINANCE DECLARING THE RESULTS OF THE AUGUST 2, 2016, PRIMARY ELECTION FOR THE CITY OF LEE'S SUMMIT, MISSOURI.
SECOND MOTION: I move for approval of AN ORDINANCE DECLARING THE RESULTS OF THE AUGUST 2, 2016, PRIMARY ELECTION FOR THE CITY OF LEE'S SUMMIT, MISSOURI.
