About The Measure

The city of Airway Heights is asking voters for a new tax to raise $710,000 a year to pay off a $13 million bond over 30 years to build a new indoor fitness center with pool. The proposal would raise taxes by $1.40 per $1,000 of assessed property value. It would cost the owner of $150,000 property $210 a year.
