Howe ISD tax lowering tax rate
Howe Scout Leader David Christman gave a presentation to students at Howe Intermediate School last week to let them know what Scouts are about and how they should consider the organization.
Back in June Howe ISD had a public hearing on the tax rate which was proposed then of $0.037 per $100 of valuations for interest and sinking which is a penny less than a year ago. The maintenance and operations tax rate from a year ago was $1.17 and this year will be $1.068. The overall tax rate will be $1.438 which is eleven cents lower
than a year ago. "We're not trying to make money on our I&S (interest and sinking), but we're trying to make enough money to pay our bond," said Superintendent Kevin Wilson. With the rate, they'll have a $4,000 deficit but can cover that with a healthy fund balance.
