Colorado: Campaign for school levy begins
To kick off a campaign to extend a portion of a property tax mill levy benefiting the Summit School District, numerous community members and officials ”” even a student or two ”” gathered Tuesday at the Summit County Community and Senior Center. The Summit Board of Education recently voted unanimously to go to local voters with a school funding measure in November. Due to cuts, declines in revenue and new initiatives on the ballot that could further affect school funding, the school district is now asking voters to help make up the difference with a $2.1 million mill levy.
