Law Enforcement Tax Is Approved By Voters In Taney County

Voters in Taney County have approved a sales tax for law enforcement.

The sales tax of three-eighths of one percent will be in place for a period of 15 years.  It will replace a 1/8 cent sales tax currently in place that will sunset at the end of 2021.

According to the Taney County Sheriff’s Office, the tax revenues will be used for the sheriff’s office and jail, the county juvenile department and the prosecuting attorney’s office.
