Oberlin schools seek 6 mill levy to fund five years
Oberlin School Board trims a large funding request to a 6 mill levy for five years, yielding about $558000 annually if approved. The plan contrasts with a non-expiring tax proposal that would have started at $775000 and notes enrollment declines from 1325 this year toward 1000 this decade. The district has already cut programs and imposed pay to play fees, framing the levy as practical for current finances.
