Personal Income Tax
School District Income Tax Quarterly Distributions, by School District for Fiscal Year 1992

Table SD-2-Q4 shows four quarterly distributions of school district income taxes to school districts during fiscal year 1992. Payments are made by the Ohio Department of Taxation at the end of the month following the end of a calendar quarter. For the fourth quarterly payment in fiscal year 1992, a total of $7.9 million was distributed to 77 school districts.

The total distribution during fiscal year 1992 amounted to a total of $29.1 million. Reynoldsburg City School District in Franklin County received the largest amount for districts that received four payments ($2,339,515). The smallest amount went to Danville Local School District in Knox County ($123,180).

In 1989, the legislature enacted Senate Bill 28, reauthorizing the use of local income taxes for school districts. The school district income tax is closely tied to the state income tax, having identical tax bases. The tax is paid by residents of the district, regardless of where they work. Non-residents working in the district and corporations are not taxed.

The taxes are collected by the state in the same manner as the state income tax--through withholding, quarterly estimated payments and annual returns, except employers remit withholding either monthly or quarterly (employers who pay partial weekly for state purposes pay monthly for school district purposes). The State retains 3.0 percent of collections to cover administrative expenses.
