Police believe Weinstein stopped at the Toms River shopping center to buy a sandwich before driving to Toms River High School South, where she was tak­ ing Rutgers University graduate courses, according to a statement released to Ocean County Prosecutor Daniel J.

Weinstein, 45, lived in Tinton Falls with her hus­ band and their 6-year-old son. An autopsy revealed (hat Weinstein died of asphyxia due to an airway ob­ struction. Authorities charged 17-year-old Michael LaSane, a student at Toms River High School South, with murder, felony murder and carjacking after they found Weinstein’s car parked at his Magnolia Gardens residence. During a press conference last week, the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office announced a tape recording Weinstein made after her abduction contained ad­ ditional conversation.

He said the new information on the tape provides further important details and information identifying her attacker.

Voters on April 16 can approve or re­ ject the district’s general fund portion of the budget, which includes the current expense, capital outlay and special school funds. The current expense portion has in­ creased by 2.2 percent, or $627,913, over last year to $28,446,900. Capital outlay, which includes the pur­ chase of equipment, has increased $55,269 to $141,045. Special school funds, which finance the district’s summer school pro­ gram, decreased this year by $7,246 to $39,796. The amount of money needed during the 1996-97 school year to make principal and interest payments on school bonds is $762,190. Known as debt service, this is not subject to voter approval. Approval was granted in 1986 when voters approved a bond referendum, said Business Administrator Paul Sparta. Overall, the district has lost $88,067 in state aid and local revenue to support the upcoming budget, according Sparta explained. O f that loss, $13,085 comes from state funding sources. “If the state kept pace with the small (budget) increases, we would not have a 7.6-cent increase,” said Sparta, who added the board cut $647,155 to bring the budget $6,417 below a state-mandated spending lim it or cap. The entire spending plan, which is comprised of the general fund, special rev­ enues and debt service accounts, rep­ resents a 1.6 percent increase from last year’s budget, which was defeated by vot­ ers. Hazlet’s proposed 1996-97 budget in­ cludes the smallest spending increase in eight years, said Schools Superintendent Timothy Nogueira. The increase is also the lowest in the county, he said.

HOLMDEL — The Board of Educa­ tion last week unanimously approved its proposed $25 m illion school budget, say­ ing it meets the needs of a growing popu­ lation while enhancing the mathematics, science and technology curriculum. Only roughly 10 people attended the March 27 public hearing, held prior to adoption. Voters w ill be asked to approve the supporting tax levy April 16. The $25 m illion budget would raise the tax rate 2.75 cents per $100 of assessed Choose from Violets, Hyacinths, Tulips, Daffodils, property valuation, increasing the total Mums, Hydrangeas, Azaleas, Mini Roses and more! school tax rate from $ 1.319 to $ 1.346. The total 1996-97 budget is From 2.69 to 12.99 $25,902,242, an increase of $496,649 from last year. I( includes a general fund budget of $24,434,265, up $561,187 from the 1995­ 96 budget. The current expense portion totals $24,021,387 m illion and the capital outlay portion, $412,878. Voters w ill be asked to approve a cur­ rent expense tax levy of $22,322,163, up $624,342 from last year. In addition, taxpayers will pay $985,057 for debt service, which is down $18,487 from last year. The debt service tax levy is not subject to voter approval. Board member Pamela Speranza, chairwoman of the budget and finance committee, said the budget is fiscally D e c o r a t i v e responsible and the increase in the tax rate is the lowest in 10 years. P o t C o v e r s She said the priorities for the budget READY FOR were addressing the enrollment increases; sticking to a multi-year computer „ GIFT GIVING! .4 improvement plan, and maintaining the current curriculum while improving sci­ ence and math.
