This is a reduction of $578,928 from the failed August levy. The reduced levy amount is pos sible because of expenditure cuts in various areas, increased revenue and a reduced estimate in uncol lected taxes. Expenditure cuts recommended by District administrators and approved by the Board include reductions in staff budgets for supplies and materials and in certi fied salaries made possible by hir ing new teachers. Costs were re duced in secretarial time, deletion of a coaching position, and elimi nation of a new dump truck and a FAX machine. Costs were also reduced in the areas of rewiring bus heaters, parking lot paving, bilin gual rental space, dental insurance, the Public Employees Retirement System and food transfers. The estimated tax rate resulting with the passage of the levy will be $12.73.
