Referendum on levy for disability funding nixed

GENEVA – Voters in Kane County will not be given the chance in April to decide whether to pay more in taxes to fund services for county residents with developmental disabilities.

Thursday, the County Board Executive Committee – a committee that consists of those chairing the county’s various committees – voted 6-4 against sending a referendum question on the matter to the full board.

The committee vote effectively forces supporters to wait until the 2014 primary election.
