$ 00 Inclu1des Tax No. 24, Vol. 110 Philip, South Dakota 57567 Thursday, February 4, 2016 www. pioneer-review.com No extra school taxes for new K-12 school building project by Del Bartels Two financial and architectural experts relayed information and op - tions to the Haakon School District Board of Education during a special meeting, Tuesday, Jan. 26, about a new kindergarten through 12th grade school building to be started the summer of 2017 and ready for classes in fall 2018. The main crux of the discussion was that a new K-12 school building was possible without any raising of current property taxes. The official resolution by the board for the new school building will be voted on during the board’s Monday, Feb. 8 meeting. If that vote and other legalities go according to plan, then community meetings will be held as soon as possible. If anyone opposes the board’s decision, that person has a legal number of days to get signatures on a petition bring - ing the project to a vote by registered voters in the school district. Any election procedure would be held as soon as possible. Bid letting for the construction project should be held soon so construction companies can plan to start the summer of 2017 as soon as warmer weather allows. Plans are for the project to be classroom ready by the fall of 2018. Pay - ment of the project would be over future years, with monies coming out of what the district has in reserves and what is already on the tax books Del Bartels to come in to the school district during those future years.
