School Budget Shows Levy Cut Amid Growth and Carryover

Superintendent Roger Nelson cites FY86 levy cut of 1.02 mills alongside past reductions and notes four main factors driving the decrease. These include delinquent railroad tax collections of 74,289, a district valuation rise to 34,384,575, enrollment growth adding 93,000 state aid, and increased cash carryover supporting vocational and special education programs. Fiscal soundness is emphasized as carryover grows from 239,000 to 781,909 with visions to invest interest income rather than spend it.
