Authorizes certain political subdivisions to levy local taxes, upon voter approval

Summary

The bill would let certain cities and one type of village that meet detailed population and county‑size criteria impose a sales tax of up to 0.5% to fund police, fire and emergency‑medical equipment, salaries and facilities. The tax could only take effect after a majority of local voters approve it in an election, and the revenue would be placed in a dedicated trust fund used solely for those public‑safety purposes. The measure failed to pass.
