The County ~ecutive pointed out that the estimates of ~osts of proposed improve~ merits and that the scheduling of the proposed improvements were in aceoz~lance with the de~ir~ of the School Officials as expressed by the Superintendent. He also stated that the compu- %ations for financing costs were based upon the assumption that all future debt financing would~e from State Lite~yFund Loans at a 2%rate and would be financed for a Period of thirty years, including a S~at~ Literary Fund Loan of $1,200,000.00 in the fiscal year 1951~52 and a $750,000.00 State Literary Fun~d Loan in the fiscal year 1953-54. The means of financing include hoped for State grouts of $111,000.00 in the year 1952-53 and $111,O00oO0 in the year !953~5~, which are in addition to the $333,000~00 State grant expected as a sult of recent State Legislation. It was also pointed out that the means of financing this program include am assumed ~ross tax levy of $0.90 for this purpose for the next seven years and thereafter except for the gradual decrease in interest costs en the amount of debt tired each year. it was pointed out tha% the above proposed school improvement program could be financed upon the following assumptions used above: (1) Cost Estimates° (2) Interest on borrowings at 2%. (3) Would finance on a thirty-~ar basis. (4) A total of $555,000.00 State Grants. (5) A total of $1,9-50,000.00 State Literary Fund Loans. (6) A gross tax levy of $0.90 for this purpose beginning with the year. 1950 and continuing through the year 1956, and also there- after e~cept for the reductions in annual interest costs on debt retired each year. It was pointed out, however,, that no projection is made for any increased operat~ costs which might result from the operation of thi~ program. Members of this Board and mem- bers of th~2:S~olJ.Boar~.~r~se~t:'-~oth.jex~p=e:ssed the feeling that the tax rate should not be increased beyond the present rate of $3.50 either now or in the future. Upon motion, the meeting adjourned. Chairman
