gvwireAdvocates and opponents of a new tax to support public parks in Fresno will debate the issue in a public forum Thursday night. Measure P would raise the local sales tax by 3/8 percent and generate close to $38 million per year to build, upgrade and maintain parks across Fresno for 30 years.
The measure will be decided on Nov. 6 and requires a two-thirds majority vote in the city of Fresno to be enacted. Voters began casting mail-in ballots this week.
