We pay the MOST tax(es?)

Atlanta voters will find on tomorrow’s ballot more than simply a choice between Hillary and Obama, or McCain and Romney, etc. It hasn’t been as widely publicized as one might expect, but the municipal option sales tax (aka MOST) is up for renewal – and Shirley & Co. are banking that you vote yes.

Here’s the ballot question:

Shall a special 1 percent sales and use tax be reimposed in the City of Atlanta for a period of time not to exceed 16 calendar quarters and for the raising of not more than $750,000,000 for the purpose of funding water and sewer projects and costs?
