Well, that'll pass in that community -- no problem. White flight still leaves room for a penny.


At least its a consumption tax and not a property tax increase. Smart move.

They've already increased school property taxes by 75% so they probably believe it might be a harder sell to ask for more even though a 1% increase in sales taxes will mean Zachary will have a 10% sales tax rate which would be the highest rate in EBR Parish.

Zachary residents can just drive to the Wal-Mart in Baker rather than shop at the one in Zachary.
