Long Prairie‑Grey Eagle board renews expiring operating levy for 10-year term
Summary
The Long Prairie‑Grey Eagle School Board unanimously adopted a resolution on June 16 to renew its expiring referendum (operating levy) under Minnesota Statute 126C.17, subdivision 9b, for a new 10‑year term beginning with taxes payable 2027. The board held a public hearing before adoption.
The Long Prairie‑Grey Eagle School Board voted unanimously June 16 to renew an expiring referendum revenue authorization (the district operating levy) under Minnesota Statutes Section 126C.17, subdivision 9b. Member Hollenkamp introduced the resolution and Member Wolf seconded; the motion passed with all seven board members recorded in favor.
The board said the renewed referendum will be for the same per‑pupil amount as the expiring authorization and, if enacted as the resolution directs, would apply for 10 years beginning with taxes payable in 2027. The meeting included a hearing on the levy to allow public testimony and to permit the board to make the statutory findings required under Subdivision 9b. The board directed the clerk to submit the resolution to the Commissioner of Education and the county auditors by September 1 as required by the statute.
Board members who voted in favor were Gohman, Hollenkamp, Levin, Wolf, Wright, Zahnow and Zastrow. The record shows no opposing votes or absences for the renewal action.
