A deal has been struck between Delaware lawmakers and the Sussex County Technical High School.
The state House of Representatives has offered up a plan to restructure the schools finances and enrollment.
The measure would provide for a 5.5 percent property tax increase starting on July 1st in the district.
The following year there would be a 1 cent increase finally capping at 30 cent for $100 of assessed property value.
The increase will cost the average taxpayer nearly $11 by the end of the second year.
Those tax increases would disappear by the 2018 fiscal year and would come back down to 23.5 cents.
The plan would give the school officials time to make adjustments to meet the problems facing the school.
