FILER, Idaho — Twin Falls County voters encountered two levy requests from the Filer School District during this year's election.

The first was a 10-year, $300,000 per year plant facilities levy, and the second was a $650,000 two-year supplemental levy. Combined, the two levies would be worth $3.65 million over a 10-year lifespan.

The school district stated that the majority of the plant facility levy funds would go to maintenance and upgrades at the existing middle school, while development plans for a new school could proceed.

80% of the supplemental levy was set to cover teacher salaries, with 10% going to extracurriculars, and the other 10% to other school supplies.
