Cobb County residents approved a referendum for a one-cent sales tax on September 20, 2005.
An estimated $825 million in additional funding will be collected using a Special Purpose Local
Option Sales Tax (1%) between January 2006 and December 2011. The money raised from the sales tax will be used to
fund capital improvement projects around Cobb County and within each of the county’s six cities
Local Sales Tax programs approved by Cobb voters in 1985, 1990 and 1994, provided $1.5 billion dollars in
transportation improvements.
