Sponsored text: Dr. Phil Aaron on Nickel Tax issue Improving Adair County Education See What a Nickel Can Do! Photos will accompany this text By Dr. Phil Aaron In 1981, 25 years ago, I was a young physician with a dream. As chairman of the committee to pass a bond to build a new hospital I told Adair Countians, "This is the most important vote you can make for the future of our county." We passed that bond vote while every other hospital bond vote on the ballot in Kentucky was defeated. Our hospital won!Adair County won! And now, one quarter of a century later, the dream lives on. Please join me with me to support the most important vote in the history of Adair County Education. If we support this nickel investment in our children's future, Our children win! Adair County wins!

These improvements to the school system will help provide our students with even better opportunities. Adair County has a history of supporting worthy causes: our hearts and our pockets have overwhelmingly supported projects which benefit Adair Countians. Let's show a strong turnout for this nickel tax, similar to our support for the Crusade for Children and Relay for Life. Remember, if we support our children's education all Adair Countians win! What can we get for a nickel? The Adair Board of Education is seeking to impose a 5 cent (per $100.00 of assessed property value) tax to fund much needed improvements in our school district, and issue which will be decided on December 6. In these days and times a nickel will not buy much as the story but here's what a nickel can do for our children: Here's what a Nickel can do! $287,000.00 from the new tax: $ $ which represents $3,375,000.00 in Bonding capacity for new construction: $ $ $ This could result in $416,000.00 in additional taxes from the State of Kentucky: $ $ $ $ $ Which would result in $5,410,000.00 in additional bonding: $ $ $ $ $ $ Meaning the Adair County School District would have $9,145,000.00 total bonding capacity Which could be used for:
