School Superintendent <br />Steve Wrenn told the Boards meetings will be held in the near future to give the citizens of <br />Broadway or anyone else a chance to make comments. <br />County Manager William Cowan went over two proposed payment options to <br />repay the bond sale project of $21,500,000. Schedule 1 projects a 15 year payment period <br />with $10,464,000 in interest payments. A tax rate increase of 7.3 cents over the next <br />three years would be necessary to finance the debt payment. Schedule 2 projects an 18 <br />year payment period with $13,464,000 in interest payments, $3,000,000 more than the 15 <br />year schedule. A tax rate increase of 5.7 cents over the next three years would be <br />necessary to finance this debt payment. <br />The Boards discussed per pupil allocation for current expenses for FY 1997-98. <br />County Manager William Cowan told the Boards the current per pupil allocation is $775 <br />(8,574 students = $6,645,000). The Board of Education is asking for $800 per pupil <br />allocation for the upcoming year and $1,000 per pupil by the year 2000. <br />Discussion took place concerning capital outlay needs of the Board of Education <br />for FY 1997-98.
