Issue 7: Massillon City School District renewal levy

The question, as printed on the ballot

Shall a fixed-sum levy renewing an existing levy be imposed by the Massillon City School District for the purpose of paying the current operating expenses of the district in the sum of $3,430,178 and a levy of taxes to be made outside of the ten-mill limitation estimated by the county auditor to average 4.9 mills for each $1 of taxable value, which amounts to $172 for each $100,000 of the county auditor’s market value, for a period of 5 years, commencing in 2027, first due in calendar year 2028? The county auditor has certified that the amount by which the carry-over balance in the district’s general operating budget from the preceding fiscal year exceeds the district’s general fund expenditures made in the preceding fiscal year is $0, which is 0% of those expenditures.
