(KNZA)--The Board of Education for the South Brown County Schools of USD 430 has approved for publication a proposed 2019-20 budget that contains a property tax levy decrease.
The Board approved the budget for publication during a special meeting Monday morning.
Superintendent Jason Cline went over the proposed budget with the Board. It contains an estimated tax rate of 42.061 mills, which is down 1.3 mills over the 2018-19 budget.
Cline said they were able to lower the tax levy due to a little over $2 million increase in the district’s assessed valuation.
One mill will raise about $39,000.
The Board will consider adoption of the 2019-20 budget following a public hearing at their August 12 meeting.
