San Francisco voters may have the chance in November to boost the tax on stock compensation under a proposal announced Wednesday by Supervisor Gordon Mar to target tech companies going public.
Mar’s plan would tax companies for stock compensation at a rate of 1.5 percent — up from the current rate of .38 percent — that he estimates could generate up to $200 million in the next two years.
