Boardman BOE to ask voters for new money

BOARDMAN

At a special meeting tonight, the board agreed to place a 3.9-mill, three-year emergency levy on the November ballot to raise about $3.1 million annually.

“We’re at a point with the challenges in state funding and personal property taxes that we’re looking for ways to continue to maintain the excellent quality of education that we’ve had for our community,” said John Landers, board vice president.
