Wasco County Corrects Election Flyer On Proposed MCFR Tax Rate

The Wasco County Clerk’s Office is sending out letters to votes in the Mid-Columbia Fire and Rescue District with language that was omitted on the flyer included with the ballot.  The document included with the ballot understates the tax impact of the district’s bond measure.  The full impact is 21 dollars per 100-thousand dollars of assessed property value, not 21 cents as is in the statement sent with the ballot.  The measure calls for a property tax rate of 21 cents per thousand dollars of assessed value.  County Clerk Lisa Gambee said the error occurred in her office, and did not involve the district.  The letter being sent out includes the complete summary of the MCFR ballot measure including the corrected language.
