Franklin Community School Corporation

So when you go to the ballot box this November, or if you do early voting statewide, we have 38 school districts across the state asking for a local public question to approve a levy increase on property taxes to fund a particular need.

Here in Johnson County, we have two school corporations, Clark Pleasant And Franklin Community Schools, I know that Dr. Edsel's here in the room, Superintendent Clark-Pleasant can answer detailed questions that you have about their referendum.

you know, they're pursuing a renewal of their 2018 referendum, if I'm not mistaken.

They're only calling for a nine cent increase for $100 assessed valuation, two million, they'll generate $4.4 million of the proposal, and two million for school safety per year, and 2.4 million earmarked for student support services.

Franklin Community Schools, their rate increase proposal is 29 cents, which will generate $9 million per year.

There's a renewal of their 2019 referendum that is expiring, I believe, next year, but they're going a year early because they're not allowed to have a local public question now in odd or municipal election years.

Schools are now limited or districts to a referendum only every two years in the general election.
