Town seeks help from state with school $$$ woes
2014
Overview
In the application, the town notes that Rutland's minimum local contribution to the Wachusett Regional School District for fiscal 2014 is more than 40 percent of the town's budget, and that during the last five years increases in the minimum local contribution have consumed 76 percent of the town's' new revenues (new growth and tax increases). \"Rutland's total WRSD assessment equates to 54 percent of our total general operating budget,\" Mr. [Joseph Becker] said. \"Outside of the assessment, we have the debt service on the three Rutland school buildings. This annual debt payment is just over $2 million, which means that just over 66 percent of the total operating budget is associated with non-vocational school education.\" \"Many people across all levels of local and state government have worked very hard over the last several months making various state officials aware of Rutland's MLC (minimum local contribution) challenges over the last several years,\" he said.
