Wahkiakum commissioners unanimously approve resolution to place six-year EMS levy on ballot
Summary
The board approved Resolution No. 87-26 directing the county auditor to place a proposition on the general election ballot to replace the expiring six-year emergency medical services levy. The motion passed unanimously.
The Wahkiakum County Board of Commissioners on July 14 approved Resolution No. 87-26 directing the County Auditor to place a proposition on the upcoming general election ballot to impose a special tax levy for emergency medical services to replace an expiring levy.
The motion to adopt the resolution passed unanimously (Aye: Tischer, Letham and Cothren). The resolution instructs the auditor to prepare the ballot language and submit the proposition as required by statute.
The measure was introduced by the sheriff’s office during the meeting; the minutes record the board’s formal action but do not specify the levy rate or projected revenue in the resolution text. The board’s action moves the question to voters for final approval at the general election.
