La Crescent authorized to impose local sales and use tax.

This bill authorizes the city of La Crescent to impose a local sales and use tax if approved by voters in a special election. The tax revenue would be used to cover the costs of collecting the tax and to fund up to $4 million for renovating the La Crescent regional ice arena, including replacing the ice system and installing a solar energy system. The city may issue up to $4 million in bonds to help finance the project, and the tax would expire once the project costs are paid or after a set number of years.
