Fair Grove Fire Tax Passes By Just 8 Votes

A new fire tax in the Fair Grove District passed on Tuesday by just 8 votes, 342 to 334.

The fire district encompasses territory in four counties, with the largest section in Greene County, but a tiny sliver of voters in Polk County may have been the difference in putting the new tax over the top.

"One vote or a 1,000 votes, we still won. We got our tax levy passed, so we're very excited," said Fair Grove Fire Chief Mike Armstrong.
