BINGEN — The City of Bingen will appoint no more than three volunteers to serve on a For/Against Committee for a ballot measure planned for the Aug. 5, 2025, Klickitat County election.
The proposed measure is for a public safety sales tax of one-tenth of one percent ($0.10 additional sales and use tax per $100 sales). The proposed measure would generate approximately $35,000 annually.
Revenue generated would be used to continue police services through the Bingen-White Salmon Police Department and fire services through the Bingen Fire Department. Committee members will work together to write an argument to be published in the Klickitat County Voters Pamphlet (limit 250 words) and write a rebuttal (limit 75 words) to the opposite argument. Voter names will be published in the Voters Pamphlet.
Anyone interested in serving on the For/Against Committee should contact City Administrator Krista Loney at 509-493-2122 x1 or administrator@bingenwashington.org.
