GLENDO — The Glendo Town Council talked about the sixth penny tax on the Aug. 21 primary election ballot during the council’s regular meeting Aug. 8.
Councilor Merit Thomas, who is on the Pennies 4 Platte committee, reported a lot of people in Wheatland don’t support a remodel of the 4-H Building on the Platte County Fairgrounds. Pennies 4 Platte is a local group promoting the sixth penny tax.
Mayor Susan Juschka said they “really need to push” Proposition 3 on the ballot, which is for small municipalities to make improvements. She said the proposition will help Glendo as the sixth penny tax has already helped the town in the past. She noted every purchase made by every tourist helps the town.
“The majority of this tax is paid by out-of-towners,” Thomas said.
