BELOIT, Ohio - West Branch Local Schools
plan to put a levy on the May ballot.
The amount and length of the levy have not
yet been determined.
The school board will submit information to
the state explaining how much money they believe the district needs.
The Department of Taxation will then
determine the rates at which an income or property tax should be presented to
voters.
“You have to ask the Department of Taxation
how much will millage or income tax, how much will that raise for our district.
Then we have to be thoughtful about that and say okay, this is what we want to
put on the ballot to raise the amount of money we believe we need,” said Scott
Weingart, Superintendent West Branch Local Schools
The superintendent believes the district
needs an additional two million dollars annually.
A proposed income tax to raise the money
was defeated by voters in November.
