Referenda

Peoria County voters looked favorably on two of the three tax increase referenda on the ballot. But the Peoria County School Facilities half-cent sales tax increase was approved by a less than a one-percent margin. Conversely, voters approving the property tax increase for programs supporting veterans and those with disabilities by a 10-percent margin. The referendum that would have meant a quarter-cent sales tax increase for roads failed 55 to 45 percent.
