TOWNSEND K12 SCHOOL DISTRICT #1

NOTICE OF INTENT TO INCREASE NONVOTED LEVIES

March 31, 2024

The Townsend K12 School District #1 is committed to financial transparency.  20-9-116 MCA requires the District to provide notice of its intent to increase non-voted levies in the ensuing fiscal year for certain funds.   Understanding the District’s budgets requires considering all levy-supported funds.  The proposed notice contains projections for all of the District’s levy-supported funds.

These estimates are the District’s best estimates at the current time.  They are based on the current year’s taxable value, as required by 20-9-116 MCA.  If the District’s taxable value increases as expected, the mill and taxpayer cost increases will be less than presented here.  These estimates are preliminary and changes are expected before the final budgets are set in August.
