Monona Voters Asked to Renew District Levy and Tax Plan
The MFL MarMac school district asks voters in Monona to renew its physical plant and equipment levy and its sales and service tax purpose statement in a Tuesday special election. The current levy at 1.34 per 1,000 expires in 2012 and would run ten more years to 2023 if renewed. Superintendent Dale Crozier notes last year’s rate was 0.82 per 1,000, not the maximum 1.84, to supplement revenue. The district also seeks to update the local option sales tax purpose statement to reflect its shift from county to state taxation.
