Subject: |
1. Public Hearing on proposed budget and proposed tax rate.
|
|
Description:
The Board of Trusetees gives the public an opportunity to express their opinion on the proposed budget and tax rate.
|

Subject: |
1.A. Proposed Budget
|
|
Description:
I am recommending a proposed budget for Ralls ISD of $6,380,981.38 for the 2012-2013 school year. The total budget includes federal programs, TRS on-behalf benefits that are just reported, and is not expenditure. Also, part of the food service budget includes USDA donated commodities that are reported as expenditures, but are actually donations.

Subject: |
1.B. Proposed Tax Rate
|
|
Description:
I am recommending that we adopt a rate of $1.04 per $100.00 of evaluation. This tax rate will not generate enough funds to meet the purposed budget. Therefore we will have a deficit budget of $70,939.38.
The values for 2012 of $135,174,365.00 will generate $1,363,639.00 at a 97% collection rate. As a result of this proposal and the values increasing, taxes on the average homestead would increase by $2.45 compared to 2011 taxes. THIS TAX RATE WILL RAISE MORE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS THAN LAST YEAR'S TAX RATE. BECAUSE VALUES INCREASED BY APPROXIMATELY $20,000,000.00, A RATE OF $1.04 IS EFFECTIVELY A 12.94% INCREASE IN THE TAX RATE. |
