Bryan Voters Approve Tax Renewal

Bryan city vot­ers approved the renewal of the city’s one-half per­cent income tax.

The levy passed with 622 votes in favor of the tax, and 277 against, how­ever those results are still unof­fi­cial.

Mayor Doug John­son, after the final results were posted, told the Bryan Times that there will be no need to assess for street, sewer or treat­ment plant repairs in the fore­see­able future.

John­son said the city coun­cil had sched­uled a spe­cial meet­ing for noon today in case the levy failed. But since it passed, the meet­ing has been canceled.
