Columbia mayoral candidates discuss taxes in debate

The Columbia mayoral candidates discussed city finances and ethics Thursday night during their debate.

Chris Kelly said the city’s budget could come unbalanced due to sales tax projections the city council made in September.

ABC 17 reports current Mayor Brian Treece defended the move by pointing out that the state Department of Revenue has not yet remitted some sales tax to the city.
