Show 8 Thursday, Jan. WEST VAUEY VIEW 8, 1981 For Granite Schools Two Days - - Mall Budget Cut Proposals Outlined PARK. GRANITE Members of the Granite Board of Education will have two weeks in which to study administrative recommendations for cutting about $2.2 million from the districts in budget order to comply with the mandate of a special session of the State Legislature. John Superintendent Reed Call outlined areas where money has been identified as being available. The 3 5 percent cut must come from about 10 percent of the budget because what has already been spent and contracted obligations such as salaries and fringe benefits comprise about 90 percent of the multimillion dollar budget. Dr. Call also greeted the new Board of Education with some additional gloomy news. Because statewide enrollments exceed pro- - Workshop jections, the state will likely come up short in weighted pupil unit money and the district could find itself short an additional $936,000. He is recommending that the board not cut its capital account because enrollment projections show that unless the district builds a school per year through 1985, it will be unable to cope with growth in the west valley area without full scale, busing of elementary students. There is also a contingency fund of about $400,000 that he is recommending be held until the WPU shortfall is assessed, probably in March. Call also suggested that the board not cut, at this time, its investment program because high cross-the-distri- interest rates are favorable to investors. That left the Maintenance and Operations budget. The suggested cuts are as follows: - $9,724 in Slated At ly and outside consulta- Libraries istrative offices. COTTONWOOD HTS.
