Carroll County to send 1.4‑mill levy question for county home to voters
Summary
The Carroll County Commissioners voted to place Resolution 2026‑25 on the ballot, asking voters to approve a 1.4‑mill replacement levy for the maintenance and operation of the county home (the Golden Age Retreat) for tax years 2027–2031. The measure passed by roll call.
The Carroll County Commissioners voted to submit Resolution 2026‑25 to the electors, asking approval of a replacement levy of 1.4 mills to fund maintenance and operation of the county home (referred to in the resolution as the Golden Age Retreat) for tax years 2027–2031.
The motion to proceed with the levy question was introduced and approved during the July 13, 2026 meeting. A roll call on the resolution recorded "Yes" responses from Commissioner Leggett, Commissioner Werkner and Commissioner Bogransky, after the chair moved and the item received a second.
The resolution, as read at the meeting, describes the levy as a question to allow the county to levy a tax in excess of the 10‑mill limitation for the stated purpose. No fiscal estimate beyond the 1.4‑mill rate and the covered tax years was read into the record during discussion.
The measure will appear on the ballot for voter consideration; the clerk or county elections staff will carry out the procedural steps required to submit the question to electors. The commission did not record further debate or amendments to the levy during the meeting.
