The funding for the project will be a combination of monies that include a loan.  It will be a 2% note for 5 years with a balloon payment after five years. This would raise taxes approximately $16 per hundred thousand of assessed value.

The Board is looking in to various ways to reduce the cost to taxpayers. All agreed that the projected was a priority.
