GRAND ISLAND —
The
Grand Island school board has unanimously approved the 2008-09 budget,
OKing a spending plan that has a small decrease in the overall tax levy.
In other action, the board opted for a "small wind" project, even
though the decision means falling short of the goal of getting 25
percent of district energy from renewable sources.
For the 2008-09 budget, the total levy will be $1.197, compared to a
little more than $1.21 last year. District business manager Virgil
Harden said the levy will drop by $0.125 cents.
As a result, the owner of a $100,000 home whose price did not
appreciate in the past year would see a property tax decrease of $12.48
for the coming year.
