Stuart Simpson, North Platte Public Schools’ finance director, says the district’s full 2023-24 property tax request is “off the table” after school board members failed to ratify it Monday night.
The hour-long budget hearing passed without public comment, advancing North Platte Public Schools $80.33 million 2023-24 spending plan to a final school board vote Sept. 11.
The North Platte school board started the new year with a series of split votes for board officers, resorting to an old-fashioned way to reach a decision.
