Springfield City School District is pleased to share that the Ohio Supreme Court has ruled in the District’s favor regarding the continued collection of the 2013 bond levy. This important decision affirms the District’s position and ensures that debt service payments will remain funded as intended by voters, without placing additional financial burden on the District.
As a result of the ruling, the District is taking steps to remove the contingency Permanent Improvement levy from the November ballot. This action is no longer necessary as the Court’s decision guarantees continued funding in alignment with Ohio law and the expectations of the District’s community.
“We are grateful for the support of our Board of Education and community throughout this process, and we remain committed to strong financial stewardship on behalf of our students and taxpayers,” said SCSD Chief Financial Officer Nicole Cottrell.
