This measure amends Union City's business license ordinance to implement a gross receipts tax of up to 0.25% on businesses while lowering taxes for many small businesses, generating approximately $3.5 million annually for city services including emergency response, street repair, crime prevention, fire protection, and neighborhood maintenance. The tax would continue until voters decide to end it and includes requirements for public spending disclosure and independent audits.
