Fairfield bond plan for high school district debated in Times
Fairfield Times outlines a proposed bonding district to fund a new southern county high school. The article estimates a $56,000 bond plus about $34,000 federal aid, totaling $90,000, with a 20 year amortization at 4 percent. It calculates a 7 mill levy for bonds and a 3 mill levy for operations, totaling about 10 mills and roughly $8 to $9 yearly per 80 acre farm, with cost reductions as nearby schools shed students.
