The state of Minnesota will pay a significant portion of the total bond project.
They will pay approximately 35% of the district's bond payments, or approximately $2.3 million of the $6.5 million bond amount through the Ag2School Tax Credit program.
This reduces the burden to the Lake Crystal Wellcome Memorial taxpayers.
Watch your mailbox soon for the informational flyer and reach out to a Board Member or Superintendent Benson with any questions!
