Pasco County’s school district faces a funding dispute with local charter schools over delayed property tax payments. Charter schools claim the district isn’t disbursing their share of referendum-funded employee pay, delaying payments. The district argues it waits to release funds until after receiving tax payments, which arrive by late November. Legal reps argue the district must provide monthly payments regardless of timing, citing state law. The board will decide in April whether to seek legal clarification.
