Tax on property
in transit approved
A resolution preserving the college’s authority to tax personal property in transit was approved Thursday. Recent state legislation dictated the action by trustees in order to be able to tax certain property “in transit.” The move could mean as much as $150,000 in additional tax revenue to the college, according to college officials. The Corsicana City Council recently adopted a similar ordinance.

Trustees approved the adoption of policy manual changes for the Medical Laboratory Technology and Occupational Therapy Assistant programs on first reading. A number of changes and clarifications regarding re-enrollment, testing procedures, privacy issues, and drug and criminal background checks were made in the manuals.
Financial statements approved
Trustees approved $1.7 million in budget amendments on the recommendation of Darrell Raines, vice-president of finance and administration. The amended budget for the 2007-08 year stands at $66,433,677.
