COUNCIL TO AGAIN ADDRESS FOOD TAX MONDAY NIGHT, PASSAGE EXPECTED

(Richmond, IN)--Just a few days after a special meeting dealing only with Richmond’s proposed one percent food and beverage tax, the issue goes back before Richmond Common Council Monday night.  The issue will remain on second reading Monday night, which means additional public comment could be taken.  Once public comment is complete, the issue will likely go to a final reading and then to a vote, where it is expected to pass.  Council will also address a memorandum of understanding with WCTV.  Monday night’s meeting begins at 7 o’clock.
