Establish a Tax Base
For Our Local Hospital
“Shall Malheur Memorial Hospital District of Mal­
heur County, Oregon, establish a tax base of $19,427.80?”
That question will appear on the ballot of those vot­
ing in the hospital district at the time of the general
election next Tuesday, Nov. 8. It is doubtful that any of
the measures or amendments on the general election
ballot are of as much importance to the people of Nyssa
and the surrounding area as is this proposal.
The state attorney general’s office ruled that since
the hospital district was a new taxing body and no tax
base had been established since its incorporation it could
do so only by submitting the issue to the people for a
vote.
There was insufficient time to meet the publication
requirements to hold the election at the time of the pri­
mary, so the board of directors delayed asking for a vote
until this general election in order to save the cost of a
special election.
Like all others, the local hospital is not self-support­
ing and it is too much of a burden to seek private funds
from individual donors to maintain operation of the
facility. The board of directors are submitting the issue
to voters so that it will not be necessary to have an elec­
tion each year to vote operation and maintenance money
needed.
With a tax base established, it will operate in the
same manner as the schools in that in no one year can
taxes be increased more than 6 percent over the pre­
ceding year.
We understand the hospital was established through
donations of individuals as a community project. It is
something in which we can all take pride. But it also
takes money to operate and we can see no other way
than to vote YES Nov. 8.
If there is anything you do not understand we suggest
you contact any member of the hospital board before
election time. They will gladly furnish you the desired
information.
