The Wooster City School Board has approved a resolution to place a bond issue on the ballot next spring for voters. The 6.7-mill bond issue to fund Phase I of a master facilities plan in the District. In Phase 1, a new kindergarten-second-grade elementary school will be built on the site of Cornerstone Elementary School with intent to preserve and incorporate historical elements of the building; and a new sixth-eighth-grade middle school with a sports stadium and track for those students. The estimated cost of the project is $102 million. For every $100,000 of home value, as documented on the county auditor’s website, a homeowner will pay $235 a year, or about $19.60 per month.
