County Assistance District Proposition on November Ballot

During this November’s general election, some voters in Cass County will be able to vote for a county assistance district. Many Texas counties find it challenging to fund public services, projects, and programs. Texas authorizes all counties to create county assistance districts and to adopt a local sales tax to finance these important public purposes. With voter approval, county assistance districts allow the county to receive sales tax revenue from the unincorporated areas of the county where a local entity isn’t already collecting a sales tax.
