+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1775.28 5.60 I<space>did<space>a<space>question<space>about<space>how<space>is<space>the<space>percentage<space>of<space>elementary<space>students<space>calculate<space>it?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1780.88 4.88 Is<space>that<space>something<space>like<space>K<space>through<space>four<space>versus<space>five<space>through<space>12<space>in<space>Jericho?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1786.00 0.32 Yeah.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1786.48 7.44 K<space>through<space>four,<space>we<space>are<space>defining<space>elementary<space>pupils<space>as<space>students<space>who<space>would<space>attend<space>Jericho<space>Elementary<space>School.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1793.92 3.04 So<space>that's<space>K<space>through<space>four<space>only.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1797.84 10.72 Fifth<space>through<space>12th<space>grade<space>is<space>part<space>of<space>the<space>MMU<space>school<space>district<space>for<space>our<space>purposes.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1809.20 4.32 Okay,<space>so<space>the<space>common<space>level<space>appraisal.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1817.36 1.36 I'm<space>not<space>gonna<space>go<space>through<space>all<space>of<space>this.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1818.80 1.76 You<space>can<space>read<space>it,<space>ask<space>me<space>if<space>you<space>have<space>questions.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1820.64 9.76 Basically<space>right<space>now,<space>Jericho<space>CLA<space>is<space>so<space>close<space>to<space>100%<space>that<space>it<space>is<space>not<space>going<space>to<space>change<space>your<space>tax<space>rate<space>for<space>this.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1832.64 12.24 It's<space>in<space>the<space>10th<space>of<space>a<space>cent<space>range,<space>the<space>change,<space>the<space>tax<space>rate<space>and<space>then<space>it<space>ended<space>up<space>rounding<space>back<space>to<space>the<space>47<space>cents.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1844.96 17.36 So<space>that<space>simplifies<space>that<space>for<space>this<space>year,<space>at<space>least.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1864.32 29.84 So<space>this<space>sort<space>of<space>this<space>chart<space>shows<space>how<space>the<space>elementary<space>portion,<space>elementary<space>home<space>portion,<space>that<space>homestead<space>tax<space>rate<space>combines<space>with<space>the<space>Mt.<space>Vans<space>fields<space>portion<space>for<space>students<space>in<space>grades<space>five<space>through<space>12,<space>to<space>get<space>our<space>overall<space>tax<space>rate.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1894.24 6.32 And<space>just<space>a<space>little<space>bit<space>about<space>income<space>sensitivity,<space>if<space>we<space>could<space>just<space>go<space>to<space>that<space>next<space>slide.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1901.44 7.52 Just<space>like<space>to<space>point<space>out<space>that<space>there<space>is<space>adjustment<space>for<space>income<space>sensitivity.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1909.04 16.16 So<space>you<space>can<space>see<space>that<space>up<space>through<space>an<space>income<space>of<space>$90,000,<space>there<space>is<space>some<space>adjustment<space>in<space>a<space>downward<space>fashion<space>of<space>what<space>you<space>have<space>to<space>pay,<space>what<space>you<space>would<space>have<space>to<space>pay.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1927.28 12.56 I<space>believe<space>that<space>caps<space>out<space>at<space>90,000,<space>household<space>income<space>about<space>2000.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1940.56 6.96 The<space>last<space>year,<space>this<space>slide<space>will<space>have<space>to<space>be<space>up<space>here<space>because<space>Act<space>82<space>was<space>phasing<space>out.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1947.92 8.40 But<space>basically<space>Act<space>82<space>limited<space>the<space>amount<space>of<space>increased<space>spending<space>that<space>school<space>boards<space>could...
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1956.56 5.44 School<space>districts<space>can<space>propose.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1962.48 15.60 Well,<space>we<space>can<space>propose<space>anything<space>we<space>wanted,<space>but<space>at<space>over<space>a<space>certain<space>cap,<space>there<space>would<space>have<space>to<space>be<space>a<space>complicated<space>two<space>vote<space>sort<space>of<space>situation,<space>which<space>fortunately<space>for<space>us,<space>we<space>are<space>not<space>in<space>this<space>year.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1978.16 9.20 So<space>we<space>were<space>able<space>to<space>come<space>in<space>under<space>the<space>maximum<space>increase<space>allowed.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1989.12 1.76 This<space>might<space>be<space>a<space>little<space>hard<space>to<space>see.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 1991.04 15.76 This<space>is<space>also<space>on<space>page<space>66,<space>was<space>sort<space>of<space>summary<space>of<space>the<space>budget.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2006.96 20.16 And<space>what<space>I<space>tried<space>to<space>do<space>with<space>this<space>chart<space>was<space>just<space>include<space>the<space>line<space>items<space>that<space>have<space>gone<space>up<space>or<space>gone<space>down<space>with<space>a<space>couple<space>of<space>exceptions<space>that<space>snuck<space>in<space>into<space>my<space>chart<space>that<space>have<space>gone<space>up<space>and<space>down<space>by<space>4%<space>or<space>more.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2027.52 6.88 So<space>that<space>you<space>could<space>see<space>really<space>what's<space>driving<space>the<space>budget<space>this<space>year.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2035.20 10.96 And<space>what<space>is<space>driving<space>the<space>budget,<space>our<space>increases<space>in<space>teacher<space>salaries<space>by<space>the<space>negotiated<space>settlement.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2046.40 11.68 So<space>that's<space>sort<space>of<space>a<space>given<space>health<space>significant,<space>pre-healthcare<space>premium<space>increases.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2059.04 14.32 A<space>very<space>large<space>increase,<space>13.81%<space>increase<space>in<space>our<space>Jericho's<space>portion<space>of<space>the<space>special<space>education<space>assessment.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2079.28 1.92 Right.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2083.12 3.12 Yeah,<space>because-<space>-<space>What<space>was<space>the<space>question?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2086.88 1.92 We<space>pay<space>based<space>on<space>the<space>number...
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2088.80 1.52 Our<space>total<space>number<space>of<space>students.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2090.40 1.60 We<space>pay<space>this...
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2092.00 4.56 They're<space>asking<space>about<space>the<space>special<space>education<space>assessment,<space>which<space>Vicky<space>and<space>I<space>just<space>talked<space>about<space>this.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2097.04 10.40 Why,<space>even<space>though<space>we<space>have<space>fewer<space>students<space>eligible<space>for<space>special<space>ed<space>currently<space>this<space>year,<space>why<space>our<space>special<space>education<space>costs<space>are<space>going<space>up.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2107.60 19.76 And<space>a<space>special<space>education<space>budget<space>is<space>calculated<space>as<space>a<space>supervisory,<space>union-wide<space>system<space>that<space>we<space>are<space>part<space>of<space>where<space>each<space>school<space>is<space>assessed<space>a<space>certain<space>share<space>of<space>the<space>special<space>ed<space>total<space>cost<space>based<space>on<space>how<space>many<space>students<space>we<space>have.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2127.52 4.64 So<space>that<space>based<space>on<space>in<space>the<space>district.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2132.24 5.20 So<space>we<space>have<space>230<space>odd<space>students.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2137.60 5.44 So<space>our<space>share<space>of<space>the<space>special<space>education<space>assessment<space>is...
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2143.04 1.92 Or<space>the<space>special<space>ed<space>budget.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2145.04 3.60 What<space>we're<space>assessed<space>is<space>based<space>on<space>that<space>number<space>of<space>students.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2149.12 11.68 Smaller<space>elementary<space>schools<space>pay<space>a<space>smaller<space>share,<space>bigger<space>schools,<space>pay<space>a<space>bigger<space>share<space>because<space>the<space>predictability<space>of<space>need<space>from<space>year-to-year<space>it's<space>unpredictable.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2160.88 6.32 So<space>right<space>now,<space>we<space>may<space>be<space>paying<space>more<space>than<space>we're<space>actually<space>using.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2168.48 4.96 Other<space>years,<space>we<space>may<space>be<space>kind<space>of<space>getting<space>a<space>good<space>deal,<space>basically.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2175.60 13.28 It<space>would<space>not<space>be<space>feasible<space>for<space>us<space>to<space>set<space>that<space>budget<space>in<space>a<space>way<space>that...
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2188.88 4.16 It's<space>just<space>the<space>amount<space>of<space>the<space>special<space>ed<space>need<space>is<space>unpredictable.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2193.04 17.44 So<space>we<space>can't<space>just<space>have<space>a<space>flat<space>number<space>from<space>year<space>to<space>year.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2210.80 0.72 Does<space>that<space>make<space>sense?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2211.52 1.20 It's<space>Marsha<space>Morel.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2212.96 6.08 I'm<space>just<space>wondering<space>where<space>is<space>the<space>cost<space>per<space>special<space>ed<space>service<space>or<space>whatever.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2219.04 2.72 I<space>mean,<space>where<space>that<space>is<space>either<space>going<space>up<space>or<space>down.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2221.84 7.04 I<space>mean,<space>I<space>hear<space>our<space>assessment's<space>going<space>up<space>and<space>I<space>base<space>that<space>my<space>assumption<space>is<space>on<space>our<space>enrollment<space>is<space>going<space>up,<space>so<space>we<space>have<space>more<space>kids.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2229.20 3.20 But<space>where<space>do<space>we<space>affect<space>that<space>budget?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2232.64 7.92 That<space>total<space>amount<space>spent<space>so<space>that<space>as<space>our<space>percent<space>goes<space>up<space>or<space>stays<space>the<space>same,<space>we<space>can<space>make<space>some<space>kind<space>of<space>decisions<space>on<space>that<space>number.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2241.68 2.00 Finished<space>up<space>my<space>question.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2243.76 1.92 Yeah,<space>I<space>think<space>so.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2247.28 8.40 I<space>mean,<space>one<space>thing<space>I<space>can<space>say<space>to<space>speak<space>to<space>that<space>is<space>that,<space>I<space>mean<space>need<space>in<space>general<space>for<space>special<space>ed<space>services<space>is<space>going<space>up.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2256.00 7.52 So<space>we're<space>needing<space>more<space>special<space>educators.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2263.60 11.68 We<space>have<space>more<space>kids<space>who<space>are<space>eligible<space>for<space>special<space>ed<space>services,<space>and<space>we're<space>obligated<space>to<space>provide<space>appropriate<space>education<space>for<space>every<space>student<space>regardless<space>of<space>need.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2275.36 8.80 So<space>if<space>as<space>a<space>district,<space>as<space>a<space>supervisory<space>union,<space>we<space>have<space>more<space>special<space>education<space>eligible<space>students.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2284.24 3.28 We're<space>going<space>to<space>have,<space>the<space>budget<space>is<space>going<space>to<space>go<space>up.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2287.76 10.24 And<space>I<space>think<space>that<space>just<space>the<space>general<space>trend,<space>not<space>this<space>year<space>in<space>this<space>school,<space>but<space>the<space>general<space>trend<space>is<space>that<space>more<space>kids<space>are<space>being<space>identified<space>as<space>in<space>need<space>of<space>special<space>ed<space>services.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2298.16 5.12 So<space>that's<space>one<space>sort<space>of<space>a<space>general<space>statement.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2303.76 5.60 The<space>special<space>ed<space>budget<space>is<space>approved<space>on<space>a<space>supervisory<space>union<space>level.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2309.36 4.08 So<space>that's<space>the<space>central<space>office.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2313.44 4.40 It's<space>part<space>of<space>this,<space>it's<space>a<space>central<space>office.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2318.56 20.88 So<space>I'm<space>not<space>really<space>sure<space>how<space>we<space>affect<space>that<space>as<space>an<space>individual<space>board,<space>unless<space>we<space>decide<space>that<space>we're<space>not<space>gonna<space>participate<space>at<space>all,<space>or<space>that<space>we're<space>gonna<space>somehow<space>decide<space>as<space>an<space>elementary<space>school<space>that<space>we<space>want<space>to<space>contract<space>out<space>or<space>pay<space>for<space>our<space>own<space>special<space>ed<space>services.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2339.52 5.44 But<space>that's<space>a<space>big<space>risk.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2345.12 15.76 Because<space>if<space>we<space>have<space>one<space>student<space>come<space>in<space>next<space>week,<space>who<space>we<space>weren't<space>budgeted<space>for,<space>that<space>could<space>entail<space>another<space>expense<space>in<space>the<space>tens<space>of<space>thousands<space>of<space>dollars<space>that<space>wasn't<space>budgeted<space>for.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2360.88 14.00 And<space>because<space>students<space>go<space>in<space>and<space>out<space>with<space>not<space>a<space>lot<space>of<space>predictability,<space>this<space>is<space>kind<space>of<space>a<space>way<space>that<space>we<space>assure<space>that<space>we<space>are<space>able<space>to<space>afford<space>to<space>provide<space>the<space>special<space>ed<space>services<space>for<space>any<space>student<space>who<space>might<space>need<space>them.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2375.20 3.44 And<space>kids<space>will<space>be<space>identified<space>sometimes<space>in<space>the<space>middle<space>of<space>the<space>school<space>year.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2378.88 6.96 We<space>didn't<space>know<space>Johny<space>was<space>gonna<space>need<space>a<space>one-on-one<space>aid,<space>but<space>now<space>he<space>does.

+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 2387.12 2.40 What<space>I'm<space>really<space>trying<space>to<space>figure<space>out<space>is<space>where<space>do<space>we<space>figure<space>out<space>how<space>much<space>.

+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3492.80 1.52 But<space>they're<space>not<space>capped<space>though.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3495.36 1.44 There's<space>no<space>cap<space>on<space>those<space>expenses.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3496.88 1.52 Those<space>could<space>go<space>up<space>to<space>20%.

+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3510.00 6.88 When<space>those<space>rates<space>go<space>up,<space>are<space>they<space>capped<space>in<space>any<space>way?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3517.60 5.92 Are<space>those<space>expenses<space>capped<space>in<space>any<space>way<space>or<space>is<space>it<space>just<space>something<space>that<space>you<space>have<space>to<space>pay?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3525.12 4.56 I<space>don't<space>really<space>know<space>the<space>answer<space>to<space>that<space>question.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3531.84 5.20 Can<space>we<space>get<space>you<space>a<space>mic,<space>please?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3537.60 3.36 Try<space>and<space>see<space>if<space>that<space>works.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3541.60 2.24 Is<space>it<space>on?
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3544.24 3.60 Yep.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3550.24 4.00 Rate<space>of<space>increase<space>on<space>the<space>healthcare<space>premium<space>is<space>14%.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3554.40 4.56 And<space>that's<space>pretty<space>much<space>a<space>number<space>that<space>we<space>receive<space>from<space>our<space>healthcare<space>carrier.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3559.20 9.12 I<space>guess<space>what<space>can<space>limit<space>the<space>amount<space>of<space>the<space>increase<space>is<space>how<space>much<space>the<space>employee<space>can<space>contribute<space>towards<space>that<space>healthcare<space>cost.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3568.32 4.32 And<space>that<space>does<space>get<space>negotiated<space>within<space>the<space>contract.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3572.80 7.84 So<space>that<space>would<space>probably<space>be<space>the<space>only<space>thing<space>that<space>would<space>limit<space>how<space>much<space>the<space>increase<space>could<space>go<space>up.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3581.28 1.84 I<space>guess<space>that's<space>about<space>it.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3583.52 5.52 That<space>would<space>be<space>the<space>only<space>item<space>that<space>I'm<space>aware<space>of.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3593.60 1.84 I<space>wish<space>we<space>had<space>more<space>control<space>over<space>it.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3595.52 8.48 But<space>unfortunately,<space>the<space>cost<space>just<space>seemed<space>to<space>keep<space>going<space>up.
+Jericho_Town_Meeting_2013_-_School_District_Meeting 1 3604.88 8.56 So<space>this<space>is<space>your<space>chance<space>to<space>ask<space>anything<space>about<space>the<space>budget<space>and<space>we<space>are<space>near<space>the<space>end<space>of<space>the<space>discussion,<space>I<space>believe.
