WE NEED YOUR HELP! CBJ is considering eliminating the sales tax exemption for non-profits including the Juneau Archery Club!
The CBJ Assembly is seriously considering a proposal to require nonprofits such as the Juneau Archery Club to collect sales taxes on the classes, range day passes, and memberships that we sell. These are the ONLY ways we currently make revenue at the club and pay for materials, rent and costs for maintaining the club.
The Juneau Archery Club is already facing increased costs due to increased fees for use of CBJ facilities and increased costs of archery supplies and materials such as targets, arrows, and bows. All of our board members and range masters are unpaid volunteers, and so the proposed change to require JAC to collect sales taxes and further increase the cost to participants in JAC range days or events. Please contact the members of the assembly or show up to the next assembly meeting on Monday, August 17th at 5PM to oppose this proposal. Quick action is necessary to prevent the assembly from taking passing this change and negatively impacting the club. We hope you'll join us, submit comments, or help spread the word!
Written comments can be sent to [email protected] and the next public hearing will take place on 17 Aug . If members wish to testify in person they will need to call 907-586-5278 by 4pm on the meeting day to sign up. More Meeting details below:
