Alpine Education Board MayRaise Levy by 3.58 Mills By DAWN TRACY Herald Staff Writer After approving a $55 million budget Tuesday night, the Alpine School District Board of Education discussed raising its mill levy by3.58 mills. The board will vote on the mill levy proposalat a special meetinglaterthis month. “We're between a rock and a hard spot,”’ said Abel. “If we raise taxes, will people take affront and not pass the bond?” Abelsaid the district should take the offensive andsell both the bond and the mill levy increase on their own merits. “People in Utah are not overtaxed,”” said Abel. ‘‘The average $80,000 home District treasurer Kent J. Abel, who in Utah is taxed for $700 a year, yet in recommended the boardraiseiis mill New Jerseythe same homeis taxed for levy, said evenif voters approve a $31.5 $3,000.

That's not fair.” precedented growth in the district Abel told the board the Alpine District spends the least amount of moneyper pupil in the state and that the state pays 75 percent of all education costs for Utah Countystudents. He added that Utah spends the lowest amount per capita to educate its children than anystate in the nation Board member Richard A. Heaps however, said the district should not raise the mill levy. “It's true the percent we spend per pupil i- ‘ower than anywhereelse, but remember wehave low incomeshere. The public mood is against tax increases. Let's lookat alternatives such as year-around-schools before we consider tax increases.” Board members Donald Evans and Kenneth Whimpeysaid increasing the mill levy is the only waythe district can accommodate increasing enrollments. “Of all 40 districts we arelast,” said Evans. ‘That means we pay less to educate our children than anyone else. Butlook at our high enrollments. If we aren't supportive of thisiincrease, what will our teachers do?’ If the board approvestheincrease at the special meeting later this month (time and place to be announced) taxpayers can expect to pay $32.12 more next year on an assessed $80,000 home.
