Board approves placing school and library excess levies on Nov. 3 ballot
Summary
The board approved orders to place an excess levy for Kanawha County Schools and an excess levy for Kanawha County public libraries on the November 3, 2026 general election ballot; motions passed by unanimous roll call.
Board members voted to approve an order placing an excess levy for Kanawha County Schools on the November 3, 2026 general election ballot (enclosure 23). A separate motion approved an excess levy order for the benefit of the county public libraries (enclosure 24); board members noted a small language change clarifying that funds would not be allowed to be used by charter schools. Both motions were seconded and passed by recorded roll call with five ayes.
Board members and staff complimented the clarity of the materials provided to voters. A board member said the levy materials were clear and understandable and thanked staff for their work preparing the enclosures for public review. The transcript does not state levy amounts; the enclosures referenced in the agenda were presented as the official materials for the ballot measures.
