Taxpayers in the Conneaut School District, eligible for Homestead and/or Farmstead tax credits on their school district property tax bills, will see a reduction of over $3.00 when school district property tax bills are sent out in August.
Those taxpayers will see their credit reduced from $196 to $192.54.
The Homestead/Farmstead credit is part of the state rules determined when the state approved casino gambling several years ago amid promises of a significant credit to reduce property taxes.
Those who apply for the credit and are approved at each county level are given a credit on their tax bills with the state then paying the school district that amount. Funds are based on money taken in from the casino gambling and the number of properties approved.
Home owners and farmers must apply for the credit with about 1/3 of school district property owners having applied for the credit over the past few years.
That information was given to Conneaut School District board of Education members when the board met earlier this month and approved a no tax increase budget that furloughed numerous staff members based on a $1.8-million reduction in state funds for the year to begin July 1.
A final budget must be approved by June 30.
