In a special meeting on Feb. 1, Bethel-Tate Local School District’s Board of Education voted to put a renewal tax levy and increase on the May 4 ballot. The levy would be for five years and $1,510,00 million (7.5 mills).
If approved, collections would begin in 2022.
The school district’s current five-year 6.6 mills emergency levy, which voters approved in 2016, is set to expire at the end of this year.
District Treasurer Karen Royer said the renewal and increase – estimated to provide the school district an additional $410,000 per year – is needed to keep the school district operating at “status quo; general operating dollars.”
