Proposition 1 is a 0.2% sales tax increase to support the Clark County Public Transportation Benefit Area Authority, which runs C-TRAN. If the measure fails service is expected to be cut by about 35%. C-TRAN currently receives 0.5 percent sales tax, but an increase to 0.7 percent would provide an additional $8 to $9 million in revenue.
