Fiscal Detail and Notes
	Reducing the 2005 state valuation for the Town of Lincoln will result in an increase in state subsidy from the General Purpose Aid for Local Schools program within the Department of Education for SAD 67 and the Town of Lincoln beginning in fiscal year 2005-06.  The change in state valuation will have an impact on the local school administrative unit, SAD 67, through their cost-sharing formula by lowering the local share for the Town of Lincoln and increasing the local share for other member units.  The amounts can not be determined at this time.
	Increasing the amount of funding received by the Town of Lincoln for General Purpose Aid for Local Schools will reduce the amount of school subsidy available for distribution to all other local school units in the state beginning in fiscal year 2005-06.  The impact to each individual unit can not be determined at this time.
