Town of Frederick ballot issue scheduled to appear before the voters on November 7, 2023.

The Board of Trustees of the Town of Frederick has referred one ballot issue to Frederick voters for the November 7, 2023 election that relates to taxes and is, therefore, considered a TABOR (Taxpayers Bill of Rights) issue.

1. Comments must address Frederick ballot issue referenced above.
2. Comments filed with the Town Clerk must include a signature and voter registration address for the person submitting the comments.
3. Comments must be filed in writing with the Frederick Town Clerk (401 Locust Street) by 5:00 p.m. September 22, 2023.
