YES ON 2B equals healthy recreation facilities and quality streets WHAT 2B asks City of Gunnison voters to change Gunnison's sale tax allocations. 2B reallocates 0.38% (or 38 cents on a $100 purchase) to parks and recreation to maintain recreation facilities, such as, the pool and ice rink, and 0.37% (or 37 cents on a $100 purchase) to maintaining and rehabilitating our existing streets and related infra- structure (including sidewalks and alleys). 2B DOES NOT increase the City of Gunnison's sales and use tax rate. WHY- Ongoing costs to maintain recreation facilities and continue affordable fees is exceeding projections from 20 years ago. Costs for asphalt, cement, building materials and equipment are growing 3 times faster than the city's revenue. $1 spent now will cost $8 if our existing streets deteriorate. RESULT Passing 2B ends uncertainty in funding Gunnison's recreation facilities, such as, the pool and ice rink. Allows for an asphalt overlay on North 12th to be included in the 2024 budget. With additional projects to follow. - Paid for by Jim Gelwicks YES ON 2B equals healthy recreation facilities and quality streets WHAT 2B asks City of Gunnison voters to change Gunnison's sale tax allocations . 2B reallocates 0.38 % ( or 38 cents on a $ 100 purchase ) to parks and recreation to maintain recreation facilities , such as , the pool and ice rink , and 0.37 % ( or 37 cents on a $ 100 purchase ) to maintaining and rehabilitating our existing streets and related infra structure ( including sidewalks and alleys ) . 2B DOES NOT increase the City of Gunnison's sales and use tax rate .
