Sandy Springs will host an informational pop-up meeting to learn more about the Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (TSPLOST) 2021 referendum noon to 1 p.m. Wednesday at the Hammond Park Administration Building, 5909 Glenridge Drive. The administration building is next to the Glenridge Drive Hammond Park entrance.

The community will also have in-person opportunities to learn more about TSPLOST 2021 by visiting the city’s booth at the Sandy Springs Farmers Market Saturday.

If approved by voters, the five-year TSPLOST extension will fund transportation projects throughout Sandy Springs by extending and not increasing the existing 0.75% (3/4 of a cent) sales tax approved by voters in Nov. 2016.

If given the go by voters, the TSPLOST 2021 renewal could fund sidewalks, traffic safety and congestion relief efforts, road maintenance and paving, pedestrian and bike improvements, and multi-use paths.
