Special election to extend tax levy involving the Hinton Community School District
Voters will be asked to extend the current Physical Plant & Equipment Levy.
HINTON, Iowa (KTIV) - Residents in the Hinton, Iowa school district area will head to the polls on Tuesday, March 4 to decide whether to extend the current tax levy for another 10 years.
District officials say the renewed levy will be used for a variety of things like purchasing computers, repairing the roof, and more.
Currently, the levy is at the legal max of $1.34 per $1,000 of property value.
This means an extension will not raise taxes.
The current 10-year term will end June 30, 2026.
Hinton’s Superintendent, Ken Slater, said the vote is to ensure the school district continues to receive funding for an additional 10 years.
“We’re just thankful for having the current voted PPEL and we’re looking forward to continuing that on for the next 10 years to really put Hinton in a good spot as far as the maintenance of the current buildings. So, it’s an important vote,” said Slater.
Voting takes March 4 at the Hinton Community Center from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
