Oakland keeps prepared-food tax authority

Oakland's authority to tax restaurant sales and prepared food at convenience stores lasts until July 1, 2030. The tax is not automatic: town leaders must set it by resolution and call an election. At least 60% of qualified electors who vote must approve it. If imposed, the tax can add up to 2% to the purchase price, with proceeds dedicated to tourism, parks, and recreation.
