Voters in Columbus and Chetopa will be heading to the polls Tuesday to vote on a bond issue and a tax question.
In Columbus, citizens will vote on if they will allow USD 493 Columbus to issue bonds for just over $14.7 million. If approved, those bonds would pay for improvements to the Central Campus Facility, as well as improvements to the 7th-grade wing at the existing high school building, and fund additional improvements as needed.
Chetopa voters will decide whether or not to approve a Retailers’ Sales Tax of ½% to be used for parks and street maintenance. If approved, the tax would run for five years beginning on January 1st.
