4H cost is in cents

Clarification of Voters' Pamphlet Measure 20-239 Explanatory Statement

Press Release By Leigh Rieder

The steering committee of Support Lane County 4-H and Extension (SLC4HE) notes the voters' pamphlets for the May 17 Primary Election contain potentially confusing language in the Explanatory Statement for Measure 20-239.  The statement shows a dollar sign ($) before “1.5 cents,” which may be incorrectly read as one dollar and 50 cents.  To clarify, the SLC4HE wishes to confirm that the measure, if approved, would establish a 5-year property tax of 1.5 cents per $1,000 of assessed value.
