I figured out what to do.

I created a new instance in the view.py:

def search(request):
    newdate='1999'

In the template I used the "Y" for both instances and was able to get
the comparison to work:

{% ifequal  items.startdt|date:"Y"  newdate|date:"Y"  %}

    this does the correct comparison

   {% endifequal %}
