AISD Trustees Approve 2013-14 Tax Rate

During their Sept. 17 Board meeting, Aldine ISD Trustees approved the tax rate for the 2013-14 school year.

Anne-Marie Hazzan, AISD assistant superintendent of finance, recommended the tax rate be set at $1.305888 (17.25-cents for interest and sinking and $1.133388 for maintenance and operations).

The new tax rate is a 2.25-cent decrease from the 2012-13 tax rate.

A notice of the tax rate appeared in the Houston Chronicle, Northeast News and the Leader newspapers.

The tax rate will allow the district to maintain and oversee the public schools in Aldine ISD, to pay outstanding bonds in the succeeding years and for other lawful purposes.
