TO ALL MORROW COUNTY VOTERS: SPECIAL ELECTION ON THE Morrow County Hospital Serial Levy Tuesday, May 25 -- 8 A.M. to 8 P.M. THIS MEASURE WILL PROVIDE $22,500 ANNUALLY FOR THREE YEARS TO CONTINUE THE OPERATION OF PIONEER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. COST WOULD BE LEVIED AGAINST ALL TAXABLE PROPERTY IN THE COUNTY. Th is is an ESSENTIAL Levy to Continue Operation of OUR hospital. PURPOSE- Purpose of this election is to submit to the voters the proposition of a 22,500 annual serial levy which would be levied against all taxable property in the County. Its approval would empower the county court to levy up to 22,500 per year, and collect taxes for that amount, for a period of three years for the operation and maintenance of Pioneer Memorial Hos pital. The funds, would be used for no other purpose. NEED-- To meet operational losses in the nursing home sec tion of the hospital due to low revenue and lack of revenue in the hospital proper because of a contin ued low census. HOW IT WILL BE USED-- To replace worn out equipment, repair equipment that is not out dated and general maintenance of the hospital plant. POLLING PLACES-- Heppner Old Library Bldg.; Lexington City Hall; lone City Hall; Irrigon City Hall; Boardman City Hall. WHY A SERIAL LEVY-- The county must call upon voters to decide on a ser ial levy for a hospital operational and maintenance fund for a three year period because the cost, cannot be included in the county's ' annual budget without exceeding the 6; limitation. Amounts to be expend ed above the 6 limitation must be approved by the voters. The forthcoming election is necessary, tq de termine if voters wish to give the county court con- tinued power to levy the funds needed up to. 23,500 per year. ' COST TO THE TAXPAYER-- Cost of the 22,500 would be one-fortieth of one per cent of the taxable property in the county. This would not exceed 25c per $1,000.00 true cash valuation. QUESTIONS-- Members of the Morrow County Court, Judge Paul Jones, Commissioner Walter Hayes, Commissioner Homer Hughes, Members of the Board of Trustees of Pioneer Memorial Hospital Clarence Rosewall, Chair man, Margaret Troedson , member, Harriet Evans, member, Riley Munkers, member and John Pfeiffer, member, will be glad to answer any questions on this proposed Serial Levy between now and May 25.
