Litchfield School Board Meeting

The Litchfield School Board has approved of a job description for the new position of Associate Technology Director. The Board also approved of posting the position for interested applicants.

The Associate Technology Director would eventually transition into the Technology Director at some point when the current Technology Director, Jennifer Ridgeway, decides to retire. The Board also approved of the sale of School District property last night to the City of Litchfield for an area that will help to square off the green space for the new Litchfield Area Recreation Center.

The Litchfield School Board also heard a presentation by officials from Ehlers Public Finance Advisors regarding a tax increment financing district for the $11.9-million, 60-unit Midtown Lofts housing complex at 415 South Ramsey Avenue. The TIF district is a unique one which requires approval from the City, County and School District. The School Board will consider its approval of the TIF district during its August 26th meeting.
