So just how do you manage to increase taxes by $127 million without increasing taxes? If RUSD propagandists are to be believed, the state funding formula is such that poor districts will get increased funding from the state if they manage to milk more tax revenue out of their poor constituents. I don’t know this to be true, but I certainly hope the state has not incentivized local overspending as that is the reason we are a poor district to begin with.
