9. What are some of the major differences between an Intermediate District and an Independent
District?
Biggest difference is mainly in the population because its all special education. Need to
be more flexible since enrollment always fluctuates and is hard to predict. Primary
source of revenue comes from tuition billed to member districts. Have no taxing
authority or tax base, so cannot go to the tax payer for referendum. There is more
conversation with member districts and less with stakeholders.
