Sheridan City Councilman Andy Patceg and Utilities Director Dan Roberts made an appearance on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse to discuss The Capital Facilities Tax or “Cap Tax.”
The Capital Facilities Tax is voted in by Sheridan County residents every four years. A one-cent sales tax approved for a specific amount, it is used exclusively for specific capital improvements to community infrastructure.

According to the City, Sheridan County voters have consistently voted to renew this tax, from 1989-2020, when it last appeared on the ballot.
Roberts said although it is not frequently used by the Utilities Department, it has been utilized for large projects, including more recent repairs and improvements.

The Cap Tax, which was last on the ballot in 2020 and received a 76% voter approval, collected $40M for County-wide projects, reached a set amount and sunsets (ceases to be collected). The Cap Tax will be on the ballot once again for Sheridan County voters in November 2024.
