Brown Co special election Tuesday
05/20/2019

(KNZA)--Brown County voters will go to the polls Tuesday to decide the fate of a one-half percent countywide retailers sales tax for health care services in the county.

If approved by voters, 80 percent of the proceeds would go to the Hiawatha Community Hospital and 20 percent to the city of Horton for healthcare services in the southern Brown County community.

The sales tax is projected to generate around $758,000 annually.

If approved by voters, collection of the sales tax would begin October 1 of this year and expire ten years after its commencement.

Polls will be open Tuesday from 7 in the morning until 7 in the evening.
