GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – After nearly 15 years in existence, Brown County’s Lambeau Field sales tax will come to an end this fall.
In a release Tuesday, the Green Bay/Brown County Professional Football Stadium District announced that they have sent certification to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue of full funding of reserves.
That means the half-percent county sales tax will end no later than September 30. It was used to pay for the renovation of Lambeau Field and for stadium operations and maintenance.
Currently, the tax brings in over $20 million a year.
Reserve funds from the tax collection will be used to pay costs through Jan. 1, 2031, district leaders announced.
The tax was originally approved in a referendum in September 2000.
