Windsor officials are warning of a looming eight-million-dollar deficit, sparking a serious conversation about the town’s first-ever local sales tax.
According to the Press Democrat, at a packed workshop Tuesday, leaders explained that a one-cent tax boost could bring in five-and-a-half million dollars a year to help save police positions and fix crumbling roads like Shiloh.
Residents are now weighing that tax hike against further cuts to community events and maintenance, with a final decision on a November ballot measure expected this spring.
