BOARD FIXES sl.lO RATE FOR CITY SCHOOLS \ Formal Action Is Taken — Levy Also Certified by Controller. Total tax levy for the city In 1926 exclusive of the State rate to be. fixed Sept. 23, will be approximately $2.23.26, according’ to certification today by both the city and school city officials to County Auditor Harry Dunn and the announcement that Center Township will ask an additional 7 cents. Os the township rate, one half cent goes to the township trustee's fund, two cents to the poor fund and the rest to the three-mile gravel road fund. The combined school and school city levy of $2.1625 for 1926 show3 a $0.1725 increase over that of this year when the combined levy was $1.99. Os this the school levy was $1,055 and the school rate $.935. City Levy Joseph L. Hogue, city controller, certified a levy of $1.0625, with the notation that he believed the legal rate will be $1.0525 because of alleged illegality of an increase of one cent granted by city council to the board of sanitary commissioners. William H. Book, business director of Indianapolis schools, was to certify a levy of sl.lO. An additional levy of a cent and a quarter was included for the teachers’ pension fund, but the State will provide this increase. Both levies are subject to review by the Indiana State tax board provided remonstrances are made. A remonstrance against the increase in the levy for the board of sanitary commissioners from five and one half to six and one helf cents, is believed to be certain. $129,446.50 Gain The school levy and the budget, calling for $9,827,271.50, were adopted unanimously by the school board this morning. The budget last year was $9,697,825. Board members met. Thursday afternoon with directors of the Indianapolis Taxpayers’ Association and representatives of the Chamber of Commerce, when all approved the budget and levy. By carrying out plans in the budget the board will build six new buildings or additions to grade school buildings, besides the three grade schools started this fall. The two new high schools will be started this fall and new Shortridge plans will go forward. The principal concessions made by the board were plans to sell Shortridge High School and apply part of the money to the grade school building program, and to cut SIOO,000 from the proposed appropriation for the new Shortridge. Selling Shortridge will entail the leasing of the school from the buyer. Other reductions in the budget were $7,000 from the reserve contingency fund; $15,000 from the real estate appropriation, and $5,000 from janitorial service funds. By selling Shortridge the board >, probably will use about SSOO 000 for' the grade school building program plus the SIOO,OOO cut from the appropriation for new Shortridge, leaving only $235,000 of an appropriation of $825,000 to be raised by direct taxation for new grade schools.
