The Cuyahoga Arts + Culture Tax Levy: What It Means for Voters This November
This November, the Cuyahoga Arts + Culture Tax Levy will appear on the ballot for all residents of Cuyahoga County. It proposes a 3.5-cent-per-cigarette tax which will go to supporting arts and cultural groups in Cuyahoga County in the form of grants by Cuyahoga Arts & Culture (CAC). This tax is an increase from the current 1.5-cent-per-cigarette tax implemented in 2006 and renewed in 2015. Learn what a yes or no vote would mean for you in our latest blog post.
