Public Safety, Infrastructure, Parks and Paving Fund (PIPP) - Started June 1, 2024

Residents voted in favor of the sales tax referendum known as "Hendersonville Investment in the Future Act." This referendum added 1/2 cent sales tax to every dollar for the next 10 years.  A new budget fund was created with the additional sales tax collected from this initiative. This new budget fund is focused on public safety, infrastructure, paving and parks (PIPP). Details on the total budget and how these funds are spent each year is included below.
