This morning they -- predictably -- joined the Fayette County School District in complaining that property taxes aren't high enough to pay for school renovation.
Fayette County ranks 54th out of 176 school districts in the rate of property tax dedicated to schools.
Some of the schools schedulted (sic) for renovation were built early in the last century. None have been renovated in the last quarter-century.
Given that school financial accountability is so lacking in Kentucky, we should really look at spending first. And repealing the prevailing wage law in Kentucky would be a good second step.
