Saline Board votes for 16.78 mill levy on two ballots
Saline Area School Board approved a 16.78 mill tax request on two ballots for the 76 77 budget. One ballot seeks a 13.78 mill renewal plus a 2 mill rise to 15.78 mills and a second ballot asks for an additional 1 mill. If the 1 mill fails, services face cuts including crossing guards, library staff, counseling, field trips, and student activities. The board aims to maximize state aid under a new formula and maintain school programs despite potential cuts.
