BRMC budget details show 1994-95 request at 7.08M
BRMC Administrator presented the 1994-95 budget totaling 7,079,888 versus 5,689,608 for 1993-94 with a tax rate of 0.21765 per 100 valuation, three percent above the effective rate of 0.21132, the highest rate without a public hearing, while a 0.1807 rate applied in 1993 and a potential 60,000 dollar rise. Board member Leon Pope urged cutting the increase to keep taxes at the effective rate. Additional budget work is planned before a September vote. The board heard about the West Texas Children's Assessment Center renewal through July 1995 and potential facility expansion to house 40-50 children. Also approved 9,000 dollars for obstetrical malpractice insurance for Dr. Hawronsky.
