| TO: | ALL PERSONS, FIRMS, AND CORPORATIONS making sales at retail and purchasing tangible personal property for use, storage, or other consumption in the City of Elba, Alabama, and its police jurisdiction (located in Coffee County). |
On August 27, 2001 the governing body of the City of Elba adopted Ordinance No. 082701 decreasing the city's automotive sales and use tax rate from 1% to ¾ of 1%. The new rate of tax applies to the net difference paid for all automotive vehicles, truck trailers, semitrailers, and house trailers. The decreased automotive rate of sales and use tax is effective November 1, 2001.
If sales are made and delivered to consumers outside the corporate limits of the City of Elba but within the police jurisdiction, the rate of tax is one-half the new rate shown above.
