Susan’s Suggestions for the Election of Tuesday, May 5, 2015

May 1, 2015 1 Comment

votebadgeYes, elections are coming up on Tuesday, May 5, and despite the small number of things to vote for, this election is just as vital to us as any other.  Showing up to vote gets is the only way we get counted.  Please request absentee ballots or plan to go out and vote.

Issue 2: Cleveland Heights/University Heights City School District
Proposed Tax Levy (Additional) – 5.9 mills for the purpose of current expenses for a continuing period of time.  This translates into an additional $420 if you own a $200,000 in addition to the $7800 of current property tax. See math below. Vote: NO

Our district is too top heavy for that.
