Revenue projections for a new round of special purpose local option sales taxes will be unveiled today when local government officials gather for the first in a series of meetings to identify funding priorities. Hall County will hold a ballot referendum this fall asking voters to approve the five-year capital funding program — a 1 percent sales tax. But officials are already weighing in on what they’d like to see funded through SPLOST VII revenues, with many saying spending should be limited to infrastructure and transportation improvements.
