IMPORTANT: The language of the Referendum can lead one to think that an additional $750,000 would be added to the levy in each succeeding year. This is not the case. THIS REFERENDUM AUTHORIZES AN INCREASE OF $750,000 THAT REMAINS AN ONGOING PART OF THE BASE TAX LEVY GOING FORWARD EACH YEAR. It DOES NOT not add an additional $750,000 on top of that increased base levy each year. Referendum funds are not being used to purchase property, build housing, or increase staffing.
