State Aid
The District will receive State aid to off-set a percentage of the costs of the project. The breakdown of the State aid the District will receive is as follows:
The approved State aid for the new construction came in at 14%, or double the amount expected, while the maximum of 40% was received for alterations and HVAC upgrades. Aid for renovations came in slightly under 40% due to inclusion of the high school field house in this category, which is not eligible for funding, according to State guidelines.
Overall, State aid will off-set the cost of the total project by 24.36%, or $41,388,670.
Tax Impact
Based on the average assessed home value of $245,431, the proposed bond referendum translates into an average tax impact of $308.66 per year, or less than $1 a day.
