Council seeks Auditor's Certificates for levy renewals, recommends renewal language for ballots
Summary
Fiscal Officer Heather Rockwell presented two resolutions requesting auditor certificates for upcoming levies and recommended placing them on the ballot as renewals rather than new levies because additional levies have had higher failure rates in recent elections.
Fiscal Officer Heather Rockwell presented two resolutions at the June 24 meeting asking the county auditor to provide certificates for upcoming levy renewals. Rockwell recommended presenting both ballot measures as renewals rather than additional levies, citing a higher failure rate for new/additional levies in recent elections.
The minutes show the resolutions were introduced to start the certification process; the text of the levies (rates, durations, or fund uses) was not included in the discussion recorded in the transcript. The Council adopted the resolutions to request Auditor’s Certificates so the items can be placed on a future ballot as renewals.
