Preble County schools plan tax rollback in three districts
The Preble County Budget Commission reduced the school operating millage in Preble Shawnee Twin Valley and C R Coblentz districts from 25 mills to 20 mills, leaving Eaton and College Corner unchanged. Inside and outside millage shifts affect state foundation eligibility and first half 1975 tax bills. An April 30 extension was sought to refigure bills, with boards needing to approve the new millage to take effect.
