Library and Public Safety Levy Renewal Information

For Immediate Release: Thursday, September 09, 2010

County Service Fair at Cedar Mill Farmers Market Sept. 11

Washington County's public information effort about countywide public safety and library renewal levies on the ballot this November will involve eight events designed to provide voters with impartial information. The next event will convene at Cedar Mill Farmers Market at 13565 NW Cornell Road, Portland, on Saturday, September 11, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The eight county service fairs are intended to provide neutral information about Measure 34-179, the Public Safety Levy Renewal, and Measure 34-180, the Library Levy Renewal. The events will include information about the proposed services and costs for property tax payers. Two service fairs are planned within each of Washington County's four commissioner districts.
