The county board of supervisors met yesterday for a special meeting regarding the cannabis tax increase.
The cannabis tax is set to automatically increase by 2% each year, unless action is taken by the board of supervisors.
This year, the tax would have increased from 6% to 8%. However, in a 3 – 0 vote yesterday, the board voted to keep the cannabis tax at 6%.
Supervisors Jimmy Paulding and Debbie Arnold were absent for the meeting.
