DAYTON - On November 2, voters in the Columbia County Hospital District will decide whether to approve a $5.5 million bond levy measure that would finance a major renovation and reconfiguration of the Dayton General Hospital building.
If approved, property owners in the district, which includes all of Columbia County plus the Waitsburg School District, would see an estimated increase in their annual property tax rates of $0.50 per thousand dollar valuation. The bond payoff would be 25 years with interest expected to be 4%. Approval of the measure will require a 60% "yes" vote.
