SCHOOL FUNDING CRUNCH
Parma City Schools could be forced to make cuts after voters rejected a school income tax levy Tuesday.
The levy would have brought in $10 million more than property taxes and eliminated three existing levies.
The new levy would have eliminated $500 of property tax on every $100,000 of home value but would tax a little more than $1000 on every $60,000 of income.
Voters said no, with 59.3% voting against the levy, marking the district’s second failed levy in six months. The district has not passed a levy in 15 years.
