Knox County Schools To Request Knox County Government Take Over Debt Service

At this evenings Public Budget Hearing, the Superintendent of Schools has indicated that he will bring to the board three resolutions. Hoping that the board will approve of one or two or all three.

The first resolution is for Knox County to assume all debt service

The second resolution will ask Knox County to take all debt service over $16.0 million.

The third resolution will ask Knox County to use the same model for every construction project from this point further that is being used for the new Hardin Valley High School.

Knox County Commissioner Phil Guthe of the fourth district, who has been unfairly labeled as "not school family friendly" has been a proponent of this for some time and has been on the front on this issue for some time. Congratulations. Commissioner.
