BoardAshland-Greenwood Public Schools Joint Public Hearing
The public hearing addressed the 2025-26 property tax request, which totals $12,625,414 across the General Fund, QCPUF Fund, and Bond Fund. The discussion included the difference in total assessed property value compared to the previous year, the tax rate required to levy the same amount of property taxes as the prior year, and the proposed property tax rate. The total operating budget is expected to exceed the previous year's by 2%, driven by continued increases in student enrollment, operating costs due to inflation, and the need for competitive staff salaries and benefits.
