Special Vote On 2 Mill Tax Levy Turned Down
City commissioners failed to pass a resolution seeking a Oct 3 special election on a two mill property tax levy. If approved, the levy would raise about 300000 yearly for two years to cover a deficit and salary costs. The measure lacked enough votes, leaving alternatives like a general election levy, payroll tax, or income tax.
