In a rather routine action that barely registered with the public earlier this month, county officials passed separate ordinances renewing two local fuel taxes for another six years each.
On Thursday, Aug. 1, the Jefferson County Commission adopted ordinances 2019-080119-01 and 02, the first imposing a two-cents local option gas tax on every gallon of motor fuel and special fuel sold in the county and the second imposing another two-cents local gas tax.
