City of Fresno Measure D: Transactions and Use Tax
Source: fresnocountyca.gov
What does this measure do?
Measure D would start a 0.5% Fresno sales tax as the current county transportation tax ends, keeping today's total rate. People buying taxable goods in the city would pay it; money would enter the city's general fund for up to 10 years, or until a county transportation tax starts.
