Tight 1967 Budget Leaves District on Edge
School Finance Officer Robert Sauls reports mid year revenues and expenditures near expectations as the district tightens spending. A seven cent tax rise and potential loans or bond sales may be used to fund maintenance at end of the budget year August 31. Remaining plant maintenance funds are limited and bond approval may be required. Instructor costs show most funding spent but the account remains in good shape. Revenues to date total 6,027,198.05 with 1,582,606.95 yet to be collected plus state apportionment and foundation funds totaling several hundred thousand. Remaining funds from miscellaneous sources and possible loan or bond sales could cover needed costs.
