Bonding change eyed for unit school districts
The legislative committee of the state county superintendents association backs raising unit district bonding power to 10 percent of assessed value from 8 percent. The change, possibly via constitutional amendment, would aid Carbondale area plans plus seven districts. Also endorsed are higher per pupil expenditures to 330 and an increased qualifying rate to boost state aid, with costs estimated at 64 million and 44 million to maintain last year levels. A subcommittee report is awaited. Santa Fe National Forest notes two foot diameter aspen trunks.
