(KMZA)--Marshall County voters will decide during the November 5th general election whether to renew a half-cent sales tax for Community Memorial Healthcare in Marysville for an additional 5 years.
The Marshall County Commission voted unanimously last week to place the sales tax question on the ballot at the request of hospital representatives.
The sales tax was initially approved by voter in November 2019 for five years, and must be approved by voters again to continue.
CMH is a private, non-profit critical access hospital with 25 beds, employing over 200 staff. The hospital is governed by a 12-member board of directors from four districts.
In 2023, the sales tax generated more than $1.2 million in revenue for the hospital.
