The Hospital Tax: Recall clock is ticking At this time, little Anti-Hospital Tax sentiment has surfaced. Calls to officials appear to be leaning toward hospital, for tax. September 4, 2012, is deadline for challenge, if tax shown to be recallable. Recall Petition would need 765 names. Vote would be no earlier than November 2014 Click on headline for complete article, with teleophone numbers for County Judge Executive, County Court Clerk, Magistrates, and Hospital Trustees By Ed Waggener Whether the hospital tax is recalled or not, here are some important things to remember:
Previously, numbers for the magistrates and County Judge Executive were listed. We've obtained some numbers for three of the four remaining trustees on the Adair County Hospital District Corporation Board: - Chairman Jim Evans: 270-384-4467.The board members, above, voted 4-0 to levy the tax, though two of the members, Josh Harden and Bruce White, had possible conflicts of interest because of ties to banks which are members of the consortium which holds the bulk of the hospital's indebtedness in the form of bonds. The Adair Fiscal Court Contact Numbers are: Magistrates on the Adair County Fiscal Court:
So far, it appears that calls to magistrates have been weighted in favor of allowing the tax to stand, though it appears that the calls have been largely from hospital employees. 2012-07-24 11:34:06 | Comments | Printable version
