September 8, 2020 Special Election for the REVENUE PURPOSE STATEMENT

The West Marshall CSD Board of Education is calling for a SPECIAL ELECTION on SEPTEMBER 8, 2020

The Board of Education is asking our communities to consider the approval of an updated Revenue Purpose Statement (RPS) which outlines how the district utilizes Secure an Advanced Vision of Education (SAVE) funds. More commonly referred to as the penny sales tax, SAVE funds are utilized by districts to specifically support school infrastructure and technology needs. If voters approve the RPS in September, West Marshall will continue to be able to spend SAVE funds as Iowa law allows for the duration of the penny sales tax through January 1,  2051.
