In plain English

Virgin Town wants to add an extra 0.5% sales tax on top of its existing resort communities tax, a general sales tax charged in tourist-heavy towns on most purchases (though not things like groceries or cars), with the revenue going into the town's general funds rather than being tied to one specific project.

A yes vote

Virgin Town currently collects a 1.0% resort communities sales tax (as part of a total combined sales tax rate of about 7.45% with state and county taxes included); a yes vote on Proposition 4 would add an extra 0.5% on top of that existing 1.0% resort tax.

A no vote

A no vote would block the additional 0.5% tax, meaning Virgin Town would keep collecting its current 1.0% resort communities tax rate without the increase.

How it reads on your ballot

Shall Virgin Town, Washington County, Utah, increase the Resort Communities Sales and Use Tax by an additional one-half percent (0.5%), as authorized by Utah Code Section 59-12-402, to be collected on taxable transactions within Virgin Town?
