3.B. Action Items:
Subject:
3.B.1. Deliberation and possible action to approve the Ralls ISD 2015-2016 budget.
Description:
I am recommending a proposed budget for Ralls ISD of $7,037,169.00 for the 2015-2016 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 of $141,233.00. Estimated total revenue for Ralls ISD for 2015-2016 are based on the taxable value of $140,155,701.00 with the tax rate of $1.04 and a 515.6 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 $1.04 per $100.00 of evaluation. 

The values for 2015 of $140,155,701.00 will generate an estimated $1,434,461.00 at a 99% collection rate and a ADA of 515.6. As a result of our values decreasing by $20 Million, taxes on the average homestead will decrease by $23.10 compared to 2014 taxes.
Subject:
