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.
