Grafton School Board to Issue Bonds Under Tax Level Plan
The Grafton Independent District school board will issue about 80,000 dollars of bonds at a premium to refinance the sinking fund and reduce the levy next three years. The plan calls for about 2,500 dollars in annual savings with a six cent maximum sinking fund levy, aiming to keep taxes near the six cent level as valuations change little. The old issue will be recalled, new bonds issued yearly, and the levy expected to drop from nine to six cents per hundred dollars, with district valuations around ten million dollars.
