Edon community members gather to discuss renewal of school tax levy.

Community members in Edon gathered Wednesday for an informational meeting to discuss the renewal of Edon Northwest Local School District’s 1% earned income tax, first passed in 2015 and set to expire at the end of this year. The tax, which funds essential school operations, will appear on the May 6 ballot. District officials emphasized this is not a new tax but a continuation of an existing one, necessary to sustain the district’s current programs and services.
