Cincinnati, OH, July 27, 2026 —
The Cincinnati school board has announced that it will place a proposal for an earned income tax before voters on the upcoming November ballot. The decision means that residents will have the opportunity to directly decide whether to approve the new tax measure.
Further details regarding the specific rate of the proposed earned income tax, the projected revenue it would generate, and how the funds would be allocated by the school district were not immediately available. The exact wording of the ballot measure and the timeline for its official certification are also pending.
The school board’s move to put the tax on the ballot marks a significant step in the district’s financial planning process. An earned income tax, if approved by voters, would represent a new source of revenue for the Cincinnati public schools, potentially impacting the district’s budget for educational programs, operational costs, and staffing.
Voters in Cincinnati will have the final say on whether to implement this tax. The outcome of the November vote will have direct implications for the financial resources available to the school district in the future.
