At their next meeting on August 19th, the Naperville City Council will consider a vote to increase the Home Rule Sales Tax.
Naperville’s competitive sales tax rate has long been a major advantage for attracting both shoppers and businesses. Raising the Home Rule Sales Tax puts that edge at risk.
The Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce is working to maintain the current “No” votes and build additional support to protect Naperville’s business climate. Your voice can make the difference—sign up, speak up, and help protect the strength of our local business community.
