A final decision on whether to impose a local tab tax of $20 within the City of Spokane was delayed last night by the City Council. Why? Because the City wants to wait and see if the City’s largest union will agree to concessions that could help balance the budget, meaning the tab increase may not be needed.

Here’s the Spokesman-Review story. There is the option that the City could go ahead and collect the $20 tab fee even if the union makes concession. What’s your thoughts? Should they do so and put the money into the rainy day fund? Or where would you like to see the money go?
