EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

    The School Board authorized placement of the four-year replacement Maintenance and Operations Levy on the ballot for February 7, 2006. This four-year levy will reduce elections and personnel costs, and allow us to continue improving fiscal operations and long-range planning for the benefit of our students, staff, and community.
    This proposed levy would replace a current levy that expires in December 2006. Levy dollars account for up to 20% of the district’s operating costs providing support in many ways: additional staffing to maintain low class sizes; added program offerings and opportunities for students; additional support for students with special learning needs; training and professional growth options to maintain a highly qualified teaching and support staff; student transportation needs; textbooks and other instructional/curriculum materials; co-curricular and athletic activities; and ongoing grounds/facilities maintenance and repairs.
    Under the proposed levy, taxpayers would pay: $5,600,000 for an estimated $2.28 per $1,000 of assessed valuation for collection in 2007; $6,000,000 for an estimated $2.28 per $1,000 per assessed valuation for collection in 2008; $6,375,000 for an estimated $2.28 per $1,000 assessed valuation for collection in 2009; and $6,750,000 for an estimated $2.28 per $1,000 per assessed valuation for collection in 2010.

提案

學校董事會授權在二零零六年二月七日的選舉中提出一項四年期,保養及運作的取代稅。此四年期之稅項將降低選舉及人事費用,並讓我們可為學生,職員及社區繼續改財政運作及長期計劃。

 

此提案將取代一將在二零零六年十二月期滿之現有稅項。徵收稅額可區內運作費用的百分之二十,以支持:額外的職員以保持較的班學生人數,提學生課程活動項目及機會,為有特學習需的學生增添支援;提供更多培訓及專業發展機會以保持教師及輔助人員優良的質素。學生的交通運輸,課本及其他教育/課程所需資;課外及體育活動,及持續性的場地/設施維修保養。

按此徵稅案提議,納稅人繳交﹕2007依每一千元產業估價值$2.28的稅 $5,600,000的稅;在2008依每一千元產業估價值$2.28的稅$6,000,000的稅;在2009依每一千元產業估價值$2.28的稅$6,375,000的稅2010依每一千元產業估價值$2.28的稅$6,750,000的稅

WHEREAS, Fife School District No. 417, Pierce County, Washington (the “District”) has been receiving funds from a maintenance and operations levy previously approved by the voters on a four year basis (the “Existing Maintenance and Operations Levy”); and

WHEREAS, the Existing Maintenance and Operations Levy will expire in 2006; and

WHEREAS, the money in and to be paid into the General Fund of the District during the 2006-07, 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10, and 2010-11 school years will be insufficient to enable the District to pay for necessary program and facilities, maintenance and operation and to properly meet the educational needs of the students attending District schools; and

WHEREAS, in order to properly provide for such maintenance and operation and such educational needs, the Board of Directors of the District deems it necessary to levy the following taxes for the District’s General Fund upon all of the taxable property within the District in excess of the maximum annual tax levy permitted by law to be levied within the District without a vote of the electors:

A.    A tax of approximately $2.28 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to provide $5,600,000, said levy to be made in 2006 for collection in 2007; and
B.    A tax of approximately $2.28 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to provide $6,000,000 said levy to be made in 2007 for collection in 2008; and
C.    A tax of approximately $2.28 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to provide $6,375,000 said levy to be made in 2008 for collection in 2009; and
D.    A tax of approximately $2.28 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to provide $6,750,000 said levy to be made in 2009 for collection 2010; and

WHEREAS, the Constitution and laws of the State of Washington require that the question of whether or not such excess taxes may be levied must be submitted to the qualified electors of the District for their ratification or rejection;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF FIFE SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 417, PIERCE COUNTY, WASHINGTON, as follows:

    Section 1. The following taxes for the District’s General Fund should be levied upon all of the taxable property within the District in excess of the maximum annual tax levy permitted by law to be levied within the District without a vote of the electors:

E.    A tax of approximately $2.28 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to provide $5,600,000, said levy to be made in 2006 for collection in 2007; and
F.    A tax of approximately $2.28 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to provide $6,000,000 said levy to be made in 2007 for collection in 2008; and
G.    A tax of approximately $2.28 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation to provide $6,375,000 said levy to be made in 2008 for collection in 2009; and
