The Stone County Developmental Disability Board will be asking voters to renew the Tax Levy that funds the services they provide.

Organization Director LaDella Thomas, during a recent interview on KRZK's "Ozarks Now" program, says that the levy was first passed in 2016 which led to the formation of of the board two years later. The original levy is set to expire in 2026 with Thomas saying the board decided to go for the renewal now in order to continue with future planning for programs that is already underway. The renewal will be at the same rate as the current levy. 

Thomas says SCDDB has served over 170 individuals with at least 330 more that are needed to be served. The board currently runs or partners with organizations to provide services in 10 different areas. 

More information on the Stone County Developmental Disability Board and the upcoming ballot issue can be heard with the full interview below:
