Cuts Appropriations LEETONIA A total of $40,355 was cut from appropriations of $1.130,000 for 1976 when the Leetonia Exempted Village Board of Educatioa met Thursday evening in special session. The largest cut was $15,000 from the building and repair fund, half of what had originally been appropriated for that fund. The remainder of the nionev was cut from 14 other funds.

The revision in appropriations was necessary as a result of a miscalculation in the amended certificate of resources received from the Columbiana County office. The board voted to reject a financial proposal for certificated personnel for the 1977 year, which was prepared by a negotiating team made up of representatives of the Leetonia Education Association, the school hoard and the administration. The decision was made after members went into executive session to discuss the proposal. The package will be returned to the negotiating team for fu rt her cons idera ion. The proposal was rejected duo to a lack of funds.

The package had been prepared by the negotiating team prior to the discovery that the amended certificate of resources had been miscalculated, which meant not only that $40,000 had to he cut from 1976 appropriations, hut that that amount ould also not be forthcoming for the 1977 year.
