PRUDENT FISCAL MANAGEMENT
Tim Walker
Treasurer
(330) 497-5610
Working together to move our school district forward has been a theme of the last five years in North Canton City Schools. After spending 15 years as a college coach, faculty member and administrator, Walker was chosen to lead the athletic department at Hoover High School in 2016. After serving the last five years in that capacity, he will now join the NCCS District office in the role of Director of Development and Special Projects.
"I am so thankful for this opportunity to continue to work with North Canton Schools in this new role,” said Walker. “My wife and I have been residents of North Canton for over 10 years and our children are students in the district, so we have seen firsthand the quality of education in North Canton. This is truly an exciting time in North Canton City Schools, and I am happy to be able to contribute to the team as we continue to move forward as a District. I am thrilled to be partnering with such a great team of administrators, and I look forward to the opportunities ahead."

Assumptions
There are three main types of property taxes that the voters of North Canton City
Schools have approved:
It is important to remember that operating levies are the only local funds that can be used to maintain the operations of NCCS (General Fund). Through the support of our community, we have passed bond issues to build new facilities and PI levies to maintain
the facilities and capital assets of NCCS. However, since 1976 in the State of Ohio, no levy can collect more money than the day it was passed due to House Bill 920 which was passed by the Ohio legislature. While this protects homeowners, the School District
must return to the local voters each time more money is needed. So as the costs of wages, supplies and school operations increase, the revenues received from previous levies do not increase. While NCCS attempts to maximize each dollar, the reality is that
over time our expenses will increase and require us to ask our community for more revenue.
The County Auditor sets the value of each property located within the district. This is known as the Appraised Value (also known as market value). The Taxable Value is 35% of the Appraised Value.
Appraised Value X 35% Assessment Rate = Taxable Value
The Taxable Value of your home is the value that is used in property tax calculations.
A mill is defined as one-tenth of one percent. In property tax calculations, millage is the rate applied to the Taxable Value to determine the property taxes to collect.
1 Mill = $1 for every $1,000 of Taxable Value
If a house has an Appraised Value (set by the County Auditor) of $200,000, then the Taxable Value of that house is $70,000. The homeowner will pay $70 per year in property tax for every “mill” of property tax.
