Any idea how your sales tax is being spent? Most dont.

So its clear 1% goes to the city but what are Type A and Type B? These are programs that were voted by the residents in McKinney back in 1993. They are suppose to be improved quality life and encourage business growth. They do use some of the funds on capital projects to repair roads and city infrastructure but they also give money to private businesses and big corporations that I am against.

I am against sales tax being used in this way. I would rather that money go into the general fund like the 1% city tax. The general fund pays for fire and police. You know what else pays for fire and police? Property taxes. So if more money is going into the general fund from sales tax then that means we need to put less in the general fund from property taxes. That is how I can lower property taxes. We need to bring these corporations up for a vote again if we want to make reforms.
