This question asks voters in Underwood Public Schools to approve new referendum revenue, which is extra general operating money that voters approve for the district. It comes from a local property tax and, in some districts, partly from state aid. The board proposes adding $1,591 per pupil, rising each year with inflation. The tax would first be levied in 2026, payable in 2027, and would last ten years unless revoked or reduced as provided by law. A YES vote approves it. A NO vote means it is not approved.
