Elyria Schools face 700000 shortfall in budget
Elyria Schools face a 700000 year end budget shortfall as business tax collections lag behind projections. Treasurer Steve Huzicko said only 7.4 million of an 8.1 million expected personal property tax has been collected through October, leaving a 98 million cash balance to cushion the impact. County figures show county wide business taxes down about 2 million with tax base reductions from inventory changes and exemptions. The district plans operating levies to sustain funding as two levies near expiration in 2004 and 2005 and a 2004 vote is anticipated to cover 2005 revenues.
