Tax rate kept for Lee College budget despite shortfall
Lee College Board of Regents voted October 19 not to raise the district tax rate for 1992 93 despite an anticipated revenue shortfall over 100000.

The session also authorized stock transfers and awarded three contracts including Josten Learning for 86070 to support Upward Bound, HVAC services, and IMSCO for pipe and flat bar.
