Council Supports Resolution Calling for Tax Changes To Raise Funds for Schools By Peter Parrott Newcastle's town council has supported a resolution from Hope Township which calls for changes in the system of taxation used by school boards. "If the present system of funding continues, it could well be possible that in a few years we could have the best educational system that we can't afford," said Hope Township in a resolution circulated to all municipalities within the Northumberland and Newcastle Board of Education. Newcastle council voted to endorse the township's suggestions during Monday's council session. The township had asked that alternatives be found in funding educational costs. In addition, the presentation presentation of the school board budget earlier in the year was requested. "In this time ' of increased technology and special programs, which are expensive, the present way of funding our school system through property taxes is becoming outmoded. Our rural communities, communities, small towns, and villages, do not have the assessment base to compete with the larger industrial centres," Hope Township said. A comparison of 1983 educational mill rates among the municipalities municipalities in the Northumberland Northumberland and Newcastle school system showed that school taxes accounted for at least 50 percent of a total tax bill. The Village of Hastings had the lowest percentage of school taxes; exactly 50 percent of the tax bill was spent on education in the village. The Township of Brighton reported the highest percentage of local taxes going towards education. Seventy-five percent of the Brighton Township mill rate went towards the school system. In the Town of Newcastle, educational costs account for 56 percent of local tax dollars.
