Sales tax issue for new Marshall Co Jail put on ballot
10/02/2023

(KMZA)--Marshall County voters will decide the fate of a one-half cent sales tax to fund the construction of new jail during the November 7th general election.

The Marysville Advocate reports the Marshall County Commission last week approved a resolution placing the special question on the ballot.

If approved by voters, proceeds from the sales tax would go to pay off up to $9 million in general obligation bonds that would be issued for the project.

The new jail is to be constructed on city-owned property located on 11th Terrace, north of Subway in east Marysville.

A proposal to use a lease-purchase agreement to finance a portion of a new jail was defeated in a special election in April.

County officials have been working a jail project since 2017.
