One election is just now over. Bluffton school board, meeting on Monday, will act on resolutions to place a three-year income tax renewal levy on the March 2016 ballot.
The current levy expires on Dec. 31, 2016. According to information from the school, the levy generates approximately $700,000 for the school district year year. The levy's purpose is for permanent improvements.
The boad will also act on another levy on the March 2016 ballot. It is a 1.0 mill tax levy for the Bluffton Public Library. The school district is the taxing authority for the library.
According to the Allen County auditor, that levy generates $119,970 during the first year of its collection, based on the current valuation of the school district at $134,529,590.
Those levies and additional board action are in the board agenda, which is an attachment at the bottom of this story.
