The Harrisonville school district is asking voters to approve a $.55 tax levy to build a new $14.5million Early Childhood Center facility. It would provide expanded preschool options and before– and after-school child care for preschool students and be constructed on property the district already owns in the Jones Ranch subdivision which is north of Harrisonville on Hwy. 7.
A website campaigning against the measure, www.nonewlevy.com has a few complaints. They point out that Harrisonville already has the 35th highest levy in the state (out of over 500 districts) and that the brochures provided by the District only mentions the “Operating Tax Levy”, without taking into consideration the “Existing Debt levy” which is an additional $.87.
