This Board declares that it is necessary to renew, for five years, all of the District s 1.5-mill ad valorem property tax outside of the ten-mill limitation, for the purpose of acquiring real estate for school purposes, constructing, expanding, rehabilitating, remodeling and improving school buildings, acquiring furniture, furnishings and equipment for school purposes and landscaping and improving school sites, and that it intends to submit the question of such renewal to the electors at an election on November 6, 2012, as authorized by Section of the Revised Code. If approved, that renewal tax would be first levied in tax year 2012, for first collection in calendar year Section 2. This Board requests the Summit County Fiscal Officer to certify to it both (i) the total current tax valuation of the District, and (ii) the dollar amount of revenue that would be generated by the 1.5-mill renewal tax levy specified in Section 1. Section 3. The Treasurer of this Board is authorized and directed to deliver promptly to the Summit County Fiscal Officer a certified copy of this resolution. Section 4.
