Description

Charleston County’s big transportation sales tax is back with a clearer message: voters are getting a direct line on where the money will go — not just “may” but “will” fund specific projects like Highway 17 South, Mount Pleasant intersections, and the Battery Extension. After last year’s failed vote, council members tweaked the ballot language to boost transparency and trust, hoping this time voters will say yes to a $4.3 billion plan over 25 years — funding roads, transit, and green spaces — even as some council members warn it’s just a band-aid for deeper growth issues.
