ILCS 2020/2021 budget treading up
By PETE KLEIN
INDIAN LAKE—When the Indian Lake Central School Board of Education met on January 21, it had its first look at the budget for the next school year.
What follows is the first draft of 2020-21 budget compared to the approved 2019-2020 budget.
Total Proposed Budget of $6,992,254 compared to 2019/2020 approved budget of $6,705,567 - up 4.28% - $286,687.
Total Estimated Revenues are $1,621,250 - $1,621,250
Total Estimated Tax Levy of $5,371,004 is up 5.64% above $5,084,317 approved 2019/2020 budget.
Snide said the figures are estimates for the 2020-21 budget. The estimated revenues are carried over from prior year due to the state not yet having provided 2020·21 revenue estimates.
As of January 15, the estimated tax cap levy LIMIT is $5,208,734. The state still needs to provide estimated aid figures,
He said, “We are showing a $286,687, or a 4.82%, increase in budgeted expenditures over the prior year. Our current estimated tax levy is $5,371,004. This is $162,270 over the estimated tax cap levy limit.
SUPERINTENDENT'S/PRINCIPAL'S REPORT
Superintendent Dave Snide gave the Building Project Update as follows: “Asbestos Survey was started. They are scheduled to do the core sample on the roof on Wednesday, January 15, along with Peter Hamilton, who is with the company that met with us regarding the Tremco Coating System. I believe after they take the core samples, he will seal the roof.
“Upcoming Events: Several students will be taking January Regents. Mid-terms and Final exams will be taking place during the last three weeks of January. The 2nd Quarter ends on January 24.
