GPET Application Process Resolution Adopted by City Council

Published

on

A resolution to simplify the timeline and reduce redundancy across policy documents related to the application process for City of Sheridan General Purpose Excise Tax Funds was approved by the Sheridan City Council Monday night. City Clerk Ashlee Foster said the new application process improves accountability and sets clearer expectations for both the City and funding recipients.

Foster explains the key differences between the previous application process that was first adopted in 2020 and amended in 2023, and the new process that was approved by the Council at their business meeting Monday.

Foster said that eligibility requirements for applicants remain unchanged, as only non-profit and governmental organizations may apply for the GPET.

    So here’s the process to get your hands on taxpayer-provided money:
    -Form a non-profit with a friendly, name, and with good intentions.
    -Show up hat-in-hand and get it filled with tax-payer-supplied loot/cash.
    Maybe we all should form non-profits, to at least get some of our stolen money back.
