On Tuesday evening, the Paso Robles City Council reviewed a report from the city’s Supplemental Tax Oversight Committee, which has funded several streets projects over the summer of 2014, with more in the works. According to city staff, the council has accomplished several projects since the passage of the sales tax increase in November 2012.
