The St. Johns County Chamber of Commerce is supporting the school board proposals that will continue the half-cent sales tax for 10 years and add a 1-mill increase to property taxes in the county for four years. Voters will decide the outcome with two referendums on the General Election ballot. While any new or additional tax increases the potential burden on businesses in St. Johns County, and while raising taxes is not the first choice, we see this as a strategic investment, rather than an expense — an investment in schools, students and the future of St. Johns County. This message from Chamber President & CEO Isabelle (Rodriguez) Renault and Board Chair Orv Dothage explains the importance of these proposals and how they're critical to the county's economic development. ??
