GPET Ballot Proposition

A resolution supporting the ballot proposition to continue the General Purpose Excise Tax was approved unanimously by the Sheridan City Council at their business meeting Monday night. The resolution gives written notice to the Sheridan County Clerk that the proposition to continue the GPET for an additional four years should be placed on the ballot for the General Election in November.

If continuation of the GPET is approved by Sheridan County voters in November, the revenue collection will be from July 2027 through June 2031. The City Council also approved contracts with City Administrator Stu McRae and the local firefighters union. We’ll have more from the Council meeting in future stories.
