time period specified in the policy.

TAX LEVIES, INCOME
A board of education may propose to voters either of two types of
income tax issues, which can either be for a specified number of years
or for a continuing period of time.
The actual rate is established by the Ohio Department of Taxation based
on the funds which the board by resolution seeks to raise. The tax rate
is always rounded to the nearest quarter of a percent. The resolution
seeking the actual rate must be filed with the tax commissioner no later
than 100 days prior to the election when the issue will be decided by
voters. Within ten days, the commissioner must certify the rate for the
board, which must then file a resolution with the county board of
elections no later than 90 days before the primary, general, or special
election.
The first type of income that can be taxed includes the Ohio adjusted
gross income and taxable income from an estate. The second option is
taxing only wages, salaries, tips, and other employee compensation.
In any case, the tax is paid by residents of the district, regardless of
where they may work.
School district income tax issues can only appear on the ballot twice in
