Early voting for the Indianola Community School District special election is open at the Warren County Auditor’s Office. The special election will have voters decide on the PERL Levy (Public Educational and Recreational Levy), which will allow the district to levy $0.135 per $1,000 of taxable valuation to be used to establish and maintain public playgrounds, public recreation purposes and community education purposes. Superintendent Art Sathoff tells KNIA News the district does not anticipate an increase in the overall tax rate from the school district, due to increased valuations and the district levying fewer cash reserve dollars if the measure is approved. Voters will also be able to vote on a Revenue Purpose Statement, which guides how Indianola Schools use these sales tax revenues for school infrastructure, and will not be an increase on taxes. The special election will take place next Tuesday, March 3rd.
