MONTEREY, Calif. (KION-TV) - The City of Monterey is facing a $10 million deficit annually.

The city council is hoping to fill that gap with a tax measure and wants your input on how to move forward.

The city plans to poll the public this fall and in the spring of 2026, ahead of two ballots next year.

First, asking about a sales tax increase totaling an extra .375 percent and a possible parking tax between 5 and 15 percent, and about the renewal of Measures P and S.

Due to the nature of this deficit, the city council says it wants to put forward measures that will pass.

During these survey periods, there will also be a temperature check on other possible funding measures like admissions, streaming, and vacancy taxes.
