1-cent tax may be up for vote in December

1-cent tax may be up for vote in December

They're going to try to get this through on Tuesday:

If it votes to pursue the issue, district officials would meet with those from other Johnson County school districts to set an election date, tax rate and the ballot language that would be used, according to a memo from Iowa City School District administrative executive director Paul Bobek.

In September, the School Board would then vote on a resolution calling for an election to be held as early as Dec. 5.


Which would mess up my Thanksgiving because I'll be too busy working for Vote No.




National-type stuff: the Register rounds up the summer travel plans of the presidential wannabees. And Quad-City Times looks at the latest on Iowa vs. New Hampshire 2008. I'm sticking with my prediction: whatever the DNC decides, the Granite State will leapfrog. It then becomes a question of whether the candidates and media treat New Hampshire as legit or not.
