Senate Finance Committee Recommends School Building Funds
Boise UPI The Senate Finance Committee urged bills to create a school building fund with up to 1.5 million dollars. One measure would take 1 million from the Water Pollution Control Fund and another would allocate up to 500 thousand from surplus general funds. A third proposal would fund buildings in impacted districts with 190 thousand from liquor revenues and was held until Wednesday. Orlando M. Dalke of Health and Welfare noted the Water Pollution Control Fund had 13.6 million at year start, with an expected 8.3 million after obligations, and said the fund’s annual intake of about 4 million from inheritance taxes and cigarette taxes could drop about 30 percent under new inheritance tax laws.
