Voters in the north St. Louis County city of St. Ann will decide Tuesday whether to approve a 1-cent sales tax hike earmarked to repair roads and sidewalks.

In Overland, the city is asking for a property tax hike to fund city police pensions.

And Greendale and Moline Acres want the power to collect sales taxes from residents who make major out-of-state purchases.

They are among a series of proposed tax hikes, ballot initiatives and races for local vacancies in Missouri’s special election Tuesday.

St. Louis city has nothing on the ballot, but various communities in the surrounding region do.

In St. Ann, officials say infrastructure such as streets and sidewalks has deteriorated over the years to such a degree that the 1-cent sales tax hike is needed to catch up. The increase would fund a “transportation development district” for ongoing infrastructure work.

In the cities of Greendale and Moline Acres, voters will decide whether to approve use taxes on out-of-state purchases in the same amounts as the cities’ local sales taxes.

The use taxes, payable on city residents’ tax returns, would apply to those who buy more than $2,000 worth of goods annually from out-of-state vendors.
