The Aiken County Board of Education weighs a 9.6 mill tax increase to preserve services and counter state budget cuts next year. Officials say the rise won’t fund cost of living raises, though many certified teachers and administrators would get a state step increase. A $75 000 home would see about $30 more in annual taxes. Board leaders call it a working budget amid bleak finances due to state cuts.
