2B THE TIMES HERALD PORT HURON, MICH. Sundoy August 7, 1983 Voters face crucial choices an estimated S25G.00O deficit. By DAVE McVETY Timei Herald Reporter Voters in two Blue Water Area school districts have important decisions to make Monday. Officials in those districts Croswell-Lexington and Memphis say the the issue is simple: The proposals must pass for school to open on time in the fall. The Michigan Department of Education recently placed the two on its critical list which means they are among about 10 districts that face serious financial problems without approval of the proposals.

But Croswell-Lexington and Memphis voters aren't the only ones who will be busy Monday. Yale officials also have scheduled an election hoping to avoid $350,000 in budget cuts. Declining property values and a 7.4 percent wage increase for employees makes a millage increase necessary, officials say. Here are details on the proposals: Croswell-Lexington: A 16.2-mill renewal is on the ballot that would allow schools to open as scheduled at 1982-83 program levels. The proposal would cost residents whose property is valued at $20,000 for tax purposes their state equalized value $324; Memphis: A 22.31-mill proposal which includes an 18.31-mill renewal and a four-mill increase is on the ballot.

It would allow the distrit to open in the fall as scheduled, reinstate busing and other services and start fighting The proposal would cost residents with property valued at $20,000 for tax purposes and Yale: A two-mill increase is on the ballot to avoid cutting athletics and extracurricular activities, laying of 12 teachers and two counselors and reducing classroom aides. The proposal would cost residents with property valued at $20,000 for tax purposes $40 pushing those residents' annual school tax bill to $480.40.
