Sales Tax Passes in St. Louis

With a preliminary tally of 60 percent in favor, voters in St. Louis voted April 4 for a half-cent sales tax to fund MetroLink light rail expansion and other economic development purposes.

This measure will provide approximately $12 million per year to secure bonds of an estimated $250 million toward expanding current MetroLink lines. The project would be eligible for an additional $250 million in federal matching funds. Cost of the project, which would connect north and south St. Louis County, has been estimated at $2.2 billion.
