Inabinet applauds County Council

Chairman Andy Inabinett of the Oconee School Trustees expressed his gratitude today to the County Council for keeping the 2015 tax rate the same as it was for last year.  While it’s likely bad news to the pocketbooks of taxpayers, the decision to maintain 140 mills for the school district keeps on line the district’s projections for revenue and expenses for the 2015-16 year.  “One of our main goals is to balance our budget and quit dipping into our fund balance,” Inabinett said in an interview with 101.7/WGOG NEWS.
