The Poland Board of Education approved a resolution determining to Submit to the Electors of the School District the Question of the Renewal of an Existing Tax Levy Pursuant to Sections 5705.03 and 5705.194 to 5705.197 of the Revised Code. (#2023-97)
The resolution approved is the first of two resolutions required to place the renewal on the ballot. Poland Local School District voters last approved the levy’s renewal in 2018. It generates $1,068,055 each calendar year for five years for the purpose of providing for the emergency requirements of the district.
The Board of Education has not taken action to submit a new levy or bond to fund new school buildings. The Board of Education will meet on Wednesday, December 6 for a work session to discuss the facilities master plan.
