LETTER: Assembly vote starts process to end Brewers’ stadium sales tax

To Ozaukee Press:
    Back in the mid-1990s, the Miller Park Stadium District was authorized to collect a .1% sales tax from Milwaukee, Waukesha, Ozaukee, Washington and Racine Counties for the construction of the new Brewers’ stadium. The revenue generated from the tax helped get the stadium built and was also used for the district’s insurance and lease obligations for maintenance and operation of the stadium.
