Ashtabula school levy on ballot By SHELLEY TERRY - Staff Writer - sterry@starbeacon.com Star Beacon SAYBROOK TOWNSHIP — November voters will be asked to pass an additional tax levy of 4.9 mills, the Ashtabula Area City School Board unanimously decided Wednesday.
The levy, which amounts to 49-cents for each $100 in property valuation, will produce about $2 million annually for current expenses, Superintendent Joseph Donatone said. Former school board members Jim Brady and Marianne Stevenson are chairing the levy committee, Donatone said. In other business: The board received a letter signed by about a dozen Ashtabula businessmen, urging it to annex the Wade Avenue property into the city. Donatone announced all teachers involved in last year’s “reduction in force” are back to work because several teachers retired. Donatone said an auction will be held Sept. 20 at Chestnut Elementary School to dispose of used and obsolete equipment. There will be no minimum bids. The board approved a bid by Myers Equipment to purchase three school buses for a total of $217,024.
