So Boone County, if you're a resident there, you're scratching your head right now because they just increased, basically essentially increased your taxes to pay for school under something called a 4% rule.
Scott SloanHOST
So Boone County School Board Monday night voted 5-0 to raise your tax bill for the third year running, and no one there got to vote on it.
Scott SloanHOST
So as I mentioned, the 4% loophole, Let school boards all over Kentucky collect millions more every year without ever reaching a ballot.

Scott SloanHOST
So you think school funding issues are crazy if you live in Ohio.

[upbeat music] If you're in Kentucky, in the Commonwealth, your school tax bill has gone up again, third year in a row, and you never got to vote on it.
Scott SloanHOST
What? So there's a, a loophole that lets Boone County Schools, and, well, for a matter of fact, um, Kenton and Campbell Counties and districts all over Kentucky collect millions more every year without ever going to the ballot.
Scott SloanHOST
How is this happening? She is Kentucky Representative Mary Ann Proctor, represents Boone County, on the show on 700 WLW, something called the 4% rule.
