Bond Refinance saves Taxpayers $1.4 Million The Louisville City School District has saved taxpayers $1.4 million by refinancing a bond that was passed in 2008. School districts use bonds to borrow money to pay for buildings and facilities. When a bond is refinanced at a lower interest rate, taxpayers pay less than anticipated. “When voters approve school bonds and levies, they’re expressing their faith that the administration will make the most of their investments and look for ways to save and reduce costs,” said Louisville City Schools Treasurer Derek Nottingham. “We feel it is our responsibility to ensure monies are being spent as efficiently as possible.” Upcoming It’s not the first time the district has used refinancing to save money. The district was able to Band Dates take advantage of low interest rates in 2010 to refinance bonds originally issued in 2001. Both Stark County Fair bonds were issued to finance the construction of Louisville Elementary and Middle Schools Marching Band Performance and renovations at North Nimishillen Elementary and Louisville High Schools.
