(sacbee.com) — Rocklin residents will vote this November on a new half‑cent sales tax that would raise the city’s rate to 7.75% and generate about $8 million a year for core services like police, fire, parks, and wildfire prevention. The measure mirrors Roseville’s tax and would include annual audits and public spending disclosures, leaving Rocklin among the higher‑taxed cities in Placer County.
