The Tippin City Schools Board of Education approved a resolution during Tuesday’s meeting to place a 0.75% earned‑income tax on the ballot for the November election. The board’s approval was described by staff as the second legal step required to bring the levy to voters.

Superintendent Nadeau and district staff told trustees that, if approved by voters, the tax would appear on the November ballot and that the board must file the approved resolution with county election officials and the state tax department. Administration said it would forward the filed resolution to the district’s legal counsel and county offices the next day.

Why it matters: the proposed tax would generate local revenue for the district if voters approve it in November. At the meeting staff framed the resolution as a required procedural step under state law that enables the board to place the measure before voters.

Outcome: trustees approved the resolution by roll call. Board members indicated they would proceed with required filings; one board member—who arrived while the matter was underway—was noted as ineligible to vote on that ballot item at the time of the initial roll call because of late arrival. Administration stated it would ensure all required filings and notices are completed with county and state offices and the district’s legal counsel.

The discussion in the meeting focused on procedure rather than the merits of the tax; no public testimony on the levy was recorded during this agenda item.
