Wauseon Looking For School Funding

Wauseon schools cannot sustain its current financial course and needs to place a levy on November’s ballot, the Board of Education was told. Following a presentation of the school district’s financial status, Treasurer, Dave Fleming said a resolution to approve a 1.75% earned income tax levy will be placed on the board’s April, 13th agenda. Under those circumstances, he said, an emergency property tax levy, coming up for renewal in November, which generates $835,000 annually, will be allowed to expire.
