(KNZA)--Voters in the Doniphan County community of White Cloud will face a special question during the November 3rd general election.

The White Cloud City Council has voted to place a one percent retailers sales tax proposal on the ballot for general purposes—including maintaining and improving the city streets.

City officials say the sales tax would also minimize the need for property tax increases.

If approved, the sales tax would take effect January 1, 2021.
