Low-spending FCSD faces 700K deficit without higher state aid
Board President David Cordone warned the district could face a 702,581 shortfall even with nearly 2 million in reserves if state aid does not rise. Officials plan a 69,995,533 dollar budget with a 1.97 percent rise, but only an 88,451 to 20583063 tax levy increase is allowed. If aid stays flat the district may cut essential positions or delay purchases while the state budget is decided by April 1.
