Lodi, WI
1/7/10
Todd Berry, President of the Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance (WISTAX), the state’s oldest and most respected private government research organization, will address interested citizens in the Lodi area Monday, January 18, at 7:00 PM in the Lodi Elementary School large gymnasium. His topic will be, “Background Information on 2009-2010 school budgets”. The school board meeting, which was scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM, will be postponed until 7:45 PM to provide time for Mr. Berry’s presentation.
Mr. Berry is speaking at the request of School District of Lodi District Administrator. Mr. Shimshak opined, “The state’s fiscal crisis was essentially handed down to local school districts in the reduction of state aid, which then became a local property tax burden. This, coupled with the voter approved referendum caused a double-digit property tax increase for taxpayers in the School District of Lodi.” The public is invited to hear Mr. Berry’s perspective on the background to 2009-10 school budgets.
