McDonald school board plans levy for fall ballot

McDONALD — McDonald Board of Education will seek an emergency levy for five years to generate $260,000 annually on the Nov. 3 ballot.

The board voted tonight to ask the county auditor to certify the millage for the levy, which is expected to be 4.9 mills.

District Treasurer Thomas Radabaugh said the biggest part of the McDonald’s anticipated financial problem is that the new state budget will leave the district “flat” or at the same level for state aid from 2009 to 2011.
