WEST FORK (KFSM) — Voters in West Fork passed a tax increase to give additional funds to various facilities.

The one percent sales tax increase is expected to raise an estimated $222,970 annually.

The capital improvement projects included building an addition to the library, relocating city hall, renovating the community center and renovating the current city hall, which now houses the West Fork Police Department. Rossetti said the current building would be used solely for courts and police.
