I don't know all the specifics on this project so I can not agree or disagree ... but my limited understanding is that the additional tax was not necessarily related to help finance the project. It was related to road and utility improvements that would be necessary to support the project in the county. Since the location was an area that only had a state sales tax, there was an additional tax added to fund those general improvements that would normally handled by the county. If there was already a county tax nothing would be necessary as they would just benefit through the additional sales tax generated.

Since this seems to get so much discussion, it would be nice if someone from Russell weighed in to clarify for everyone.
