November 2025 Election

Medford voters are being asked to approve a hotel tax increase this November. It started as an effort to bring a Minor League Baseball team to Medford. But the idea has now turned into a major conference center with a possible baseball stadium on the side.

Fewer than half of Oregon Counties have anything on the ballot in next week’s election. Lincoln and Linn counties have levies the entire county can weigh in on, but Lane County has just a few communities with issues on the ballot.

Lane Fire Authority asks voters to approve a higher tax levy to fund emergency services, hire firefighters, and upgrade the Spencer Creek station.

Springfield is asking voters to increase the city’s fire levy to provide more dedicated resources for fire services.

The ballot measure comes as staffing has stayed constant but call volume has increased by nearly two-thirds.

Linn County voters will soon decide whether or not to increase an existing tax levy for law enforcement. The county has a long history of approving such a tax.

Lincoln County will ask voters in November for a five-year-levy to raise funds for veteran services.
