Holton Community Hospital asking for community support

(KNZA)--Holton Community Hospital is asking Jackson County residents for community support.

Jackson County voters will decide during the November 4th general election whether a one-quarter percent countywide retailers' sales tax should be imposed to support the hospital.

If approved by voters, the tax would commence January 1st, 2026 and expire after 10 years.

If passed, the tax is expected to generate an estimated $300,000 to $400,000 annually.

The hospital, in a release, says it needs the temporary funding to address financial challenges, including rising costs and declining reimbursements, which threaten its ability to continue providing local healthcare services.

Holton Community Hospital invites the public to attend community meetings and events in September to learn more, ask questions, and voice concerns:

Netawaka - Fitness Center Town Hall: Sept 12 at 10 a.m.

Delia - Car & Tractor Show Meet & Greet: Sept 14, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
