Larimer County voters will decide this November whether to approve a 0.15% countywide sales and use tax aimed at improving safety and mobility across the region’s transportation network.

If approved, Ballot Issue 1A would generate roughly $15 million annually for 15 years, creating a dedicated funding source for roads, bridges, intersections, and multimodal infrastructure. The tax equals 15 cents on a $100 purchase and would not apply to groceries, gas, diapers, or prescription drugs.
