KEWAUNEE COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) Kewaunee County’s half-percent sales tax was renewed for another five years during a county board meeting this week.
The sales tax was put into place in 2016 to make up for the loss in utility tax revenue from the closure of the Kewaunee County Nuclear Station.
“We were receiving roughly three quarters of a million dollars a year in utility tax,” said County Administrator Scott Feldt. “But with the decommissioning we would no longer be receiving utility tax.”
Feldt says he anticipates that the increase will be in place indefinitely.
“It’s a revenue source that the county uses to be able to fund a variety of different things,” said Feldt. “Especially from things that deal with debt and the like.”
STURGEON BAY – Amanda and Joe Brooker moved from the Green Bay area to a farm outside Sturgeon Bay three years ago with the intent that she would run her business from home while he commuted to his job with the Green Bay School District.
Their options for high-speed broadband service, a crucial element of making that plan work, proved to be, in a word, “horrible,” said Amanda Brooker, who owns Long Rifle Soap Co.
Their monthly data allocation with HughesNet, a satellite internet service, would last a week, leaving them with a slow connection for the rest of the month. Watch Netflix and chill? Entirely out of the question.
