Reinbeck council directs special election in September for CIP levy
Summary
The council voted to hold a special election in September to decide a CIP levy because, as the mayor noted, the levy cannot be on the November ballot in an even year. The motion passed 4–0 and staff were directed to schedule the election.
Mayor Jamie Eiffler told the council that because this is an even year the CIP levy cannot be placed on the November ballot; the city may hold a Special Election in September for the CIP levy instead. Councilmember Johnson moved to hold a September special election, seconded by Councilmember Bueghly; the motion carried with 4 ayes.
Minutes record the council's direction to schedule the election; the record does not specify an exact September date or expected cost for the election. The clerk/finance office was tasked with scheduling the special election and publishing required notices and timelines.
