Willard District Faces Tight Budget After Levy Failure
Shoup outlined a stable general tax picture with minor revenue drops and a nine percent health insurance rise likely due to the ACA. Expenditures fell in personnel and benefits after a districtwide reduction in force while purchased services saved about 279000 through combining special education and services with North Point. Open enrollment and court placements push costs, with one or two students sometimes driving 120000 to 150000 changes. Supplies rose as the failed Permanent Improvement Levy forces funding a maintenance reserve for the new building, requiring 98000 to a maintenance account.
