Proposition 101 would raise sales tax in Tucson by half a cent, and bring in $250 million over five years, the city said.
Tucson voters must turn in their ballots for Tuesday's special sales tax election at one of seven places around town no later than 7 p.m.
More than 254,000 Tucsonans are registered to vote, and they received ballots in the mail for the election on Proposition 101 three weeks ago.
Voters who registered in time but did not receive a ballot can bring ID to any of the voting locations to get a replacement ballot, a city spokeswoman said.
Under Prop. 101, the city sales tax would rise a half-cent, and the estimated $250 million in proceeds over five years would go to public safety equipment and street maintenance.
The votes will be counted starting shortly after 7 p.m., and the first results should be available about an hour later.
