For the first time in more than a decade, voters in the Akron Public School District will be asked to approve new taxes to pay for daily expenses and build a new North High School.

The school board voted on Tuesday to put an operating levy and a bond issue on the November ballot.

The board says the 7.6-mill levy would help fund the district's daily spending.

The 1.3-mill bond would pay for the new building.

This decision comes one week after the board agreed to eliminate 285 jobs throughout the district.

Akron Public Schools proposal would cut more than 200 jobs
