Ballot issues
Public Question #1: Ratification of State Constitutional Amendment
Currently, under the Constitution of the State of Indiana, a person charged with murder or treason is not entitled to be released on bail if the proof is evident or the presumption strong. Shall the Constitution of the State of Indiana be amended to provide that a person charged with an offense other than murder or treason is not entitled to bail if: (1) the proof is evident or the presumption strong; and (2) the state proves by clear and convincing evidence that no release conditions will reasonably protect the safety of any other person or the community. (This question concerns Article 1, Section 17 of the Constitution of the State of Indiana.)
Public Question #2: Ratification of State Constitutional Amendment
Shall the Constitution of the State of Indiana be amended to permit the judge of a city or town court to reside in: (1) the county in which the court is located; or (2) the bordering county closest to the city or town in which the court is located? (This question concerns Article 6, Section 6 of the Constitution of the State of Indiana.)
Smith-Green Community Schools Renewal of Referendum Tax Levy (Local Public Question)
Shall Smith-Green Community Schools continue to increase property taxes paid to the School Corporation for no more than eight (8) years for the purpose of funding and sustaining educational and operational funding stability in response to reductions in property tax revenue, maintaining health and safety initiatives, supporting and retaining teachers and staff, maintaining class sizes and transportation services, and funding academic and support programs to meet the educational needs of all students, while changing the current maximum operating referendum tax rate of $0.6280, by imposing a property tax rate that does not exceed $0.4988 and results in a maximum annual amount that does not exceed $2,176,300? If this operating referendum public question is NOT approved by the voters, for a median residence of $200,000, the property's annual property tax bill would decrease by $431 per year. If this operating referendum public question is approved by the voters, it would be a renewal of the most recent operating referendum public question passed in 2018 with a property tax rate of $0.6280.
