From Deseret News archives:
Pamphlet won't include projects list
The Salt Lake County Council voted Tuesday to remove a map and list of 33 road and transit projects that are being considered by county mayors and council members to receive funding from a quarter-cent sales tax hike which will be listed on the ballot as Proposition 3.
Just one week ago, the council voted to put the map and list of projects on the voter-information pamphlet.
Last month, the Legislature authorized counties to allow voters to choose to increase their sales tax to pay for road improvements, mass-transit expansion and airports.
Two days later, the County Council voted in to put the quarter-cent sales-tax increase authorized by the Legislature on the ballot. The sales tax would be in lieu of an $895 million property-tax bond that the council put on the ballot this summer to build TRAX extensions.
