The petition to place the City of Fort Scott Charter Ordinance 31 was successful in placing the issue on the ballot sometime in 2021.

Please DO NOT confuse this issue with the sales tax question that WILL be on the ballot November 3, 2020, in all of Bourbon County.

Thank you to everyone who supported the petition; the result will be the suspension of transfers of  City funds collected for the purpose of supporting the sewer and storm-water infrastructure until the VOTERS decide the right thing to do.

The ballot question will most likely be polled during an election later next year.
