Levy Again Placed Before R-5 Voters
Eugene June 38 Special Residents of the Cole County reorganized R-5 school district vote Friday on a 1.50 levy proposal. They previously rejected the measure. The plan asks patrons to approve a 40 cent levy per 100 assessed, raising the board’s ability to levy 1 without voter approval. Superintendent Tennyson Jenkins urged a 1.40 levy to keep R-5 schools open, noting the state average for districts is about 2.0. Free transit to polls will be provided for those without cars, with polling at all schoolhouses from 6 am to 7 pm in Centennial Spring Valley Marys Home and Eugene.
