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.
