Nov. 2 Election Results
Voters OK Linn law enforcement levy, Mill City marijuana measure, Stayton Rural Fire levy 

Linn County voters approved a four-year law enforcement local option tax levy  in the Nov. 2 special election.
The measure was passing with 17,950 yes votes (61.90 percent) to 11,049 no votes (38.10 percent). 
The current law enforcement levy, approved in 2018, will expire on June 30, 2022. Measure 22-189 will replace the expiring levy and extend through June 2026.
The measure will cost $2.98 per $1,000 of assessed property value. The monthly cost will be approximately $45.94 on a home with an assessed value of $185,000 — an increase of $2.31 per month from the expiring levy rate.
The levy will maintain existing public safety services with revenues funding the operations of the Sheriff's Office (76 percent), criminal prosecution at the District Attorney's Office (10 percent), and juvenile offender supervision and detention with the Linn County Juvenile Department (14 percent).
The levy will:
• Provide funding to renovate and upgrade the women's housing unit of the Linn County Jail, as well as the 911 Communications Center.
• Increase the availability and capacity of digital forensics services and technology available to investigate and prosecute computer and other technology-facilitated crimes.
• In partnership with mental health professionals, increase mental health crisis response capabilities and trained personnel, as well as connect people in crises with mental health and medical assistance.
Elsewhere:
​• Mill City voters approved a measure to allow medical marijuana dispensaries, producers, processors and retalliers in the city. The measure was passing with 318 yes votes (55.50 percent) to 227 no votes (44.50 percent).
• Voters in the Stayton Rural Fire Protection District approved a five-year local option levy for general operations. The measure was passing ​228 (59.69 percent) to 144 (40.31 percent).
