Parcel Tax In May of 2010, the citizens overwhelmingly approved an extension of the previous parcel taxes. This preserves excellence in core academic programs, including reading, writing, math, and science; reduces the impact of deep budget cuts with stable locally-controlled funding; minimizes teacher layoffs and class electives, including arts and music. The 2010 measure is an annual tax of 589 per parcel, with a two percent annual increase for six years. The parcel tax allows exemptions for seniors. The following shows the parcel tax expenditures in 2013-14. The 2014-15 tax is 638 per parcel. USE OF 625 PARCEL TAX 2013-14 SCHOOL YEAR 1a Preserve reduce class sizes in PAUSD schools.
