PENNY FOR PROGRESS
The 1¢ Local Option Sales Tax Making a $1 Billion Difference Right in Your Backyard
No New Tax
Voting ‘yes’ keeps the penny working for you. By renewing the local option sales tax that’s already in place, you’ll keep funding local projects across the County.
Your Neighborhood, Funded
The parks, sidewalks and public spaces that make Escambia County a great place are funded right here, and every project is publicly accountable.
A Safer Community
The tax supports fire stations, emergency equipment and law enforcement tools that keep Escambia County residents and families safe.
