Re-Elect Angel Cepeda Lever #2A
I am extremely proud that over the past three years, 2008-2010, our district has adopted the lowest budget-to-budget increases in almost twenty years, 4.9%, 2.1%, 2.3%. Over the past three years, 2008-2010, the lowest levy-to-levy increases in almost twenty years, 4.5%, 2.2%, 2.9%, all while maintaining educational programs and class sizes.
This has been accomplished through:
Seizing opportunity to refinance existing debt at a lower rate giving our district a savings of $1.2 million over the next twelve years.
Re-negotiating with vendors for more favorable rates providing thousands of dollars in savings.
Prioritizing cost savings at all levels keeping most departmental budget figures flat.
Strategic transfer from reserve accounts to keep tax levy increases minimal.
Deployment of in-house energy efficiency programs providing thousands of dollars in savings.
Re-negotiating with vendors for more favorable rates providing thousands of dollars in savings.
