Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Albuquerque public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Tax Increase Vote
Albuquerque’s City Council just said no—again—to a gross receipts tax increase. That means your sales tax bill in the city isn’t going up for now, but the budget debate may not be over.
Tax Increase Rejection
The Albuquerque City Council killed a proposal to raise the gross receipts tax, so sales taxes in the city are staying put. That means no new tax hit at checkout—but also no extra revenue for whatever the city hoped to fund.
