In an effort to protect City revenue, Beverly Hills voters will decide the fate of a new sales tax measure on the November ballot. The proposed 3/4 cent sales tax increase to raise the sales tax in Beverly Hills to 10.25 percent is intended to prevent the county from taking money away from the City.
“This is really not a sales tax increase. It’s a revenue protection measure,” said Councilman John Mirisch at the July 14 City Council Study Session.
