Board of Education Places No Tax Increase Levy Transfer on April 8, 2025 Ballot

The Belton Board of Education approved placing a no tax increase Levy Transfer on the April 8, 2025 ballot for voter approval during the January 9, 2025 Board of Education meeting.

Total Levy (unchanged): $5.4119, Debt Service Fund: $1.0571, Operating Fund: $4.3548

This measure, if approved by voters, would allow the Belton School District continue to focus on recruiting and retaining quality staff by allowing the district to:

  • Improve staff salaries & benefits
  • Staff positions as needed
  • Help fill hard-to-staff positions

The ballot language proposes an increase of the district’s Operating Tax Levy by 30 cents (per $100 of assessed valuation) and decrease to the Debt Service Tax Levy by 30 cents. This is estimated to increase money available for salaries and benefits without raising the overall levy.
