November 2023 Levy Renewals
About the renewals
The Tallmadge City School District will have two renewal levies on the ballot on November 7, 2023. Issues 10 & 11 are renewals of existing taxes used for the purpose of the continuing operation of the School District. These two levies are not a new tax - the cost to the taxpayer will remain the same, per HB 920.
Issue 10 was originally passed in November 2019 for a period of 5 years in order to collect $3,310,000.00 annually to operate our schools. If renewed, Issue 10 will make this levy a continuing levy, and again will not increase your taxes.
Issue 11 was originally passed in November 2009 for a period of 5 years in order to collect $2,867,000.00 annually to operate our schools. This levy was renewed a second time in 2013 for a period of 10 years. If renewed, Issue 11 will make this levy stay in effect for an additional 10 years (ending 2034). And again, will not increase your taxes.
