The article presents information that in a presidential election year that's predicted to draw a record number of voters both here and across the nation, there are several ballot measures that directly affect the local business community. Proposition J, which will appear before voters within the San Diego city limits, seeks to raise the city's transient occupancy tax by 2.5 percent. The tax on each occupied hotel room in the city would climb from 10.5 percent to 13 percent if Proposition J is approved. Proposition A, which appears before all voters countywide, is an extension of the half-cent sales tax to fund road construction and mass transit. |
