The Pinellas School Board is considering a tax increase to make up for a $19 million budget shortfall for the next school year.
Today the board members will decide whether to approve an "intent to levy" to add .25 mill to property tax assessments, or an extra 25 cents for each $1,000 of assessed, taxable value. The money would help pay the school district's operating costs.
This does not mean the district will increase taxes but it would give the board that option. The board would have to approve the tax again in July and September in order for it to be imposed.
