JAY The proposed 2021-22 budget for Regional School Unit 73 includes another special education teacher at the elementary school and one for a vacancy at the primary school, Superintendent Scott Albert told directors Thursday night.
The $20.75 million spending plan is almost $600,000 more than this fiscal year, which ends June 30. It is a 2.93% increase from the $20.2 million received last year.
Albert said salaries and benefits make up 76.5% of the proposed budget and those lines increased 3.2%.
An increase of $177,886 for debt service is from the second phase of the Siemens energy project. Three payments of $44,468 will be made, with the first in November, Albert said. There will be four payments annually after that, he said.
