PUBLIC COMMENT: Questions were asked by the public with regards to the upcoming election on the Sheriff’s Sales tax issue and if the County will continue with the process to vote.  Comm. Poindexter said the election process will proceed unless irregularities were produced.  Judith Read asked bout the difference between Excise and Sales tax, she was then referred to the Asst. DA Lelecas.  Asst. DA Lelecas stated he had previously researched the issue of Sales/Excise tax and his recommendation was that it has been used synonymously in the past by the county.  Questions were asked about when the tax would end.  Comm. Poindexter stated that it would term out after five years at which time it would be put to voter decision again.  Also that Craig, Mayes and Cherokee counties vote on sales tax for their sheriff departments as well.  Questions were asked as to who was paying for the election costs.   Comm. Poindexter stated that $7500.00 was the cost for the sales tax issue, ballots and election staff; that it was probably being paid for by the Sheriff’s Dept. cash accounts.   

 

There being no further business to discuss, the meeting was recessed.
