What happened
The U.S. Grant Joint Vocational School District is seeking public support for a $59 million project, which includes renovating existing spaces and adding new areas to its campus in Bethel, Ohio. The district is proposing a 1.99 mill bond issue, which is split into a 1.15 mill bond issue for renovations and a 0.84 mill permanent improvement levy for maintenance. Local taxpayers would cover $25 million of the cost, with the State of Ohio covering the remaining $34 million.
