One school to seek sales tax hike
Regional superintendent says more districts are likely to do the same
DIXON – Nelson Elementary is the lone school district to file a resolution with the Lee/Ogle Regional Office of Education to put the 1 percent sales tax increase back on the ballot in Lee County, Superintendent Amy Jo Clemens said Thursday.
That doesn’t mean there won’t be more to come.
Districts have until Jan. 22 to pass a resolution for the referendum to be on the April ballot. Most districts told her their vote will come in January, Clemens said.
