Publish who received the EDCCC half-cent sales tax money, and on what terms

0 of 400 neighbors0%

At 400 signatures it’s printed, with the count by town, and handed to County Judge Troy Tucker and the Clark County Quorum Court (11 justices of the peace) at a public meeting.

The same ask is open in 92 counties in 10 states — 0 signatures across all of them. Each county's petition goes to its own officials and counts toward its own goal; together they show how many places want the same thing. See every county →

Why it matters

Clark County voters approved a half-cent sales tax in 2007, 2014 and 2021. All of it goes to the Economic Development Corporation of Clark County (EDCCC) for economic development — $25.4 million from 2008 through 2023, according to the county’s state audits. No public list shows who received that money or what they promised in return. The county judge and quorum court appoint EDCCC’s board and hear its reports. We ask them to post every award and agreement paid from the half-cent, so residents can see what it bought.

Raised by residents — not yet carried to the county.

This is a petition to your elected officials — like the clipboard at the courthouse door. It does not put anything on the ballot; in Arkansas and most states that takes ink signatures from registered voters. Signatures are counted, not verified — one per browser; the delivered copy removes duplicates. Like everything here, petitions can’t campaign for candidates or ballot measures, or name county staff.
