Metropolitan Sewer District

The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD) had two propositions on the ballot. Proposition W sought to issue $750 million in sewer revenue bonds to fund the design, construction, improvement, and maintenance of MSD's sewer and drainage facilities, with the aim of complying with clean water requirements. Proposition S proposed a property tax on residential properties and a charge on non-residential customers based on impervious area to fund capital improvements for flooding and erosion control.

Prop B that passed was a zero-tax increase bond proposal. The bond will fund various campus improvement projects across the district's schools, including classroom upgrades, renovations, safety and security enhancements, and improvements to building systems and facilities.

West County EMS and Fire District

The West County EMS and Fire Protection District sought voter approval for three propositions that simplified and streamlined the District's accounting procedures. The propositions proposed abolishing the Ambulance Fund (Proposition 1), Dispatch Fund (Proposition 2), and Pension Fund (Proposition 3) tax levies while simultaneously increasing the General Fund tax levy by an equivalent amount. All three propositions were approved by a majority of voters, resulting in the overall residential tax for tax year 2024 decreasing by fourteen cents (0.14 cents) compared to the residential tax in 2023.

Winchester

Winchester residents passed both Prop V and Prop M. Prop V allows the city to skip elections when the number of candidates equals the number of open positions, saving time and resources. Meanwhile, Prop M authorizes Winchester to impose a local sales tax of up to 3% on adult-use marijuana sales, providing a new source of revenue for the city, with the ability to adjust the rate by voter approval.
