Hilliard schools place bond, levy issue on November ballot to fund district renovation project

HILLIARD, Ohio — Hilliard City Schools will have a measure on the Nov. 5 ballot asking voters to decide on a combined bond and levy issue.

The 6.9-mill operating levy would generate funds for the day-to-day management of the district, like staffing, utilities and supplies. If passed, it would cost homeowners $242 per $100,000 of home value per year.

The bond issue would authorize the school district to issue $142 million in bonds to construct, renovate and improve facilities. The district says because of the existing debt that’s expiring, the bond could be authorized without collecting additional mileage.

The Hilliard Board of Education approved the levy in June. This is the first levy the district has asked for in eight years.
