A pubic information meeting regarding Sheridan’s upcoming referendum was conducted Tuesday evening. Sheridan Superintendent Dr. David Mundy and Board of Trustee’s President Todd Roberts presented detailed information and answered public questions.
The District is asking for the seven calendar years immediately following the holding of the referendum that Sheridan Community Schools impose a property tax rate that does not exceed twenty-five cents ($0.25) on each one hundred dollars ($100) of assessed valuation and that is in addition to all other property taxes imposed by the school corporation for the purpose of funding and maintaining teaching staff, classroom sizes, and academic related programs.
Mundy stated, “The purpose of the meeting was to make sure voters were able to make an informed decision on May 2nd when they vote. I want to make it clear, Sheridan Community Schools is not running a referendum to go along with the current one. The election is to renew the current referendum with a slightly increased amount and the current referendum would cease on Jan. 1, 2018.”
