QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

What portion of the total cost is state aidable and how will the
receipt of aid be scheduled?

Under the current state building aid formula, the District should be
entitled to receive aid on 58.3% of approved project costs. Approved
project costs usually range from between 95% - 100% of total actual
costs. The middle school additions and renovations scheduled as part
of the scope of the Master Plan work will be aided over a period of 20
years. The district-wide reconstruction projects included as part of
the District's Five-Year Plan will be aided over a period of 15 years.
Of the total $107,137,282 maximum authorization being sought, it is
estimated that approximately $58 million will be returned to the
District in the form of aid.
