3.B. Action Items:
|
|
| Subject: |
3.B.1. Deliberation and possible action to approve the Ralls ISD 2014-2015 budget.
|
|
|
Description:
I am recommending a proposed budget for Ralls ISD of $6,917,890. for the 2014-2015 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. The expenditures are greater than the projected revenue generated, therefore we will run a deficit budget. We will address the shortfall of $148,827.00 by going into our Fund Balance for the 2014-2015 school year. Estimated total revenue for Ralls ISD for 2014-2015 are based on the taxable value of $160,630,644 with the tax rate of $1.0108 and a 479.4 Refined Average Daily Attendance.
|
||
| Subject: |
3.B.2. Adopt the Tax Rate for the Ralls Independent School District.
|
|
|
Description:
I am recommending that we adopt a rate of $1.0108 per $100.00 of evaluation.
The values for 2014 of $160,630,644.00 will generate an estimated $1,585,194.00 at a 99% collection rate and a ADA of 479.4. As a result of our values increasing by $25,258,381.00, taxes on the average homestead would increase by $4.08 compared to 2013 taxes. THIS TAX RATE WILL RAISE MORE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS THAN LAST YEAR'S TAX RATE. |

|
|
|
Description:
Sundown ISD is a chapter 41 school district and contacted Ralls ISD to enter into an Option 4 contract for the 2014-2015 school year, as we have done in the past. Option 4 is the selling of WADA to a chapter 41 school district. We will not gain monetarily form the sale, but we do gain from the Region 17 Technology Consortium.
|
||
