Lubbock School Board Eyes Higher Delinquent Tax Payable
The board notes 70.18 percent of delinquent taxes paid in 1963-64 and expects at least that rate to be reached for 1964-65 as July and August collections are added. They adopt a new four high school parking policy, approve personnel changes, reject renting space to a church group, delay the 1965-66 budget and public hearing, approve renting an old district office for 150 dollars a month, and discuss revising student transfer rules. They also refer to an earlier bid mix up over music stands.
