The Scottsdale City Council has amended the official ballot language for Proposition 490, a 0.15% city sales tax rate measure, during a special public meeting at Scottsdale City Hall.

This decision followed a Court of Appeals ruling on Monday that determined Scottsdale's original ballot measure could not proceed as written.

In compliance with the court’s order, the City Council revised the ballot question language. The updated language will be sent to Maricopa County to ensure Prop. 490 remains on the Nov. 5 General Election ballot for Scottsdale voters.

Residents can view the agenda of the Aug. 20 Special City Council Meeting and the revised ballot language online. Additional information about Prop. 490 and other official city election details are available at Scottsdale.Vote.
