CHAPEL HILL- <br /> ARRBORO IIIIL <br /> CITY SCHOOLS <br /> TO: Ms. Bonnie B. Hammersley <br /> Orange County Manager <br /> FROM: Dr. Pamela Baldwin, Superintendent <br /> Chapel Hill—Carrboro City Schools' Board of Education <br /> RE: Board of Educations' Budget Request for 2017-18 <br /> DATE: April 17, 2017 <br /> Attached is the Chapel Hill—Carrboro City Schools' Board of Education's Budget <br /> Request for 2017-18. The Budget Narrative highlights the needs and issues facing the district. <br /> We ask for your and the Orange County Commissioners' full consideration of our listed needs <br /> and for full funding of our request. The Board of Education is requesting a$377.50 increase to <br /> the per pupil rate. <br /> By State statute, the County Commissioners cannot raise the district tax by an amount <br /> more than what the Board of Education requested. At the April 6, 2017 meeting, the Board of <br /> Education voted to request the maximum increase in the district tax to fund its budget request. <br /> Assuming no increase in the ad valorem tax rate, the district tax would need to increase by 5.01 <br /> cents to a new rate of 25.85 cents to fund the 2017-18 budget. <br /> We look forward to the future opportunities to discuss our request with you and the <br /> Orange County Board of County Commissioners. <br /> Lincoln Center, 750 S.
