AKRON, Ohio-The Akron Board of Education finalized plans to place two levies on the November ballot. One levy aims to fund a new North High School, while the other is intended for covering operational expenses. This decision follows earlier budget cuts totaling $24 million, which were seen as a step to demonstrate fiscal responsibility before asking for additional funding. If approved by voters, homeowners could expect to pay $315 per year for every $100,000 in assessed property value. The levies are crucial as Akron schools face future deficit spending and have not sought voter approval for a levy in 12 years.
