In reviewing the reasons for
a tax increase, the first Item
that should be pointed out U
that the total tax Increase Is due
to a drop in anticipated receipt

to a drop in cash carryover from

this decrease In cash on hand
we also had a drop In census
children from 1W0 In 1!M to

census children resulted In a de
crease of funds from the Slate
