How will an Operating Referendum affect taxes? The estimated tax impact on this structured referendum would be $25 per $100,000 of property value and will increase each year for the four-year phase-in. The estimated tax impact after four years is $100 per $100,000 of property value. To calculate the estimated yearly net increase in EASD school taxes for a home worth $300,000, multiply by three (3). In year five, 2028-29, the Operational Referendum tax impact plateaus - no longer increasing but rather staying at a consistent level.

The Elkhorn Area School District will ask voters to consider an Operational Referendum on November 5, 2024. Learn more about the referendum at elkhornschools.org and plan on attending our Community Information Meeting on Monday, October 21, at 6 p.m. at the High School.
