Agenda Item #7


Item Title
Adopt the 2008-09 discretionary mill levy

Issue/Rationale
In addition to RLE, districts may choose to levy an additional non-voted property tax.  The Legislature establishes the maximum millage that each district may levy.  Currently, the maximum allowed is 0.498 mills.  (The 0.498 Mill Compression shown previously is awarded to districts who do not generate at least $337.22 per student with the levy for 2008-09.)

Recommended Action
Motion to adopt the discretionary mill levy of 0.498 which is (0.025) percent less than the rolled-back rate.

Financial Impact
The levy will generate $5,230,657 to fund 100.
