(Spirit Lake)– The Spirit Lake School District will more than likely have to increase its property tax asking for the upcoming fiscal year as a result of ongoing cuts from the state.
Superintendent Tim Grieves told the school board Monday evening he’s recommending they increase the district’s levy from the current rate of $10.52 per thousand dollars valuation to somewhere between $10.71 and $11.21 per thousand valuation.
The board has scheduled a work session for 5:00 p.m. Monday, March 15th to decide on a targeted amount.
A public hearing on the budget will be held at the board’s next regular meeting April 12th.
