Will the third time be the charm or will Pickerington Schools take some time off before asking the community to fund a new junior high school and additions to existing buildings?
It was the second defeat in six months for a package that would have generated $95 million for the district for building projects to address enrollment growth, as well as related athletic facilities upgrades.
Had it passed, it would have cost homeowners within the district's attendance boundaries $101.50 annually per $100,000 of home value – or $8.46 a month, per $100,000 home value – according to Ryan Jenkins, district treasurer.
