Mayor Dyer’s Last-Minute Tax Gambit | Fresno News

Published 1 day, 5 hours ago
Description

Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer pulled off a last-minute political maneuver to save his city’s transportation tax measure from oblivion—changing his mind just hours before the deadline to avoid a recall scare. With a countywide tax plan looming and potential voter confusion, Dyer gambled that flexibility was better than inaction, even as he faced criticism for flip-flopping. Now, the county supervisors are poised to decide whether to push their own measure forward—or if courts will intervene. Despite the chaos, Dyer remains committed to getting roads fixed, pledging support for both measures if they make it to voters.
