Columbia taxpayers will soon be paying more in school taxes.
According to the Lancaster Online "School briefs" shown below, the Columbia Borough School Board recently approved an increase of 2.5% as part of its 2019-20 budget. Although the article incorrectly states that the current millage is 25.63, the other figures shown are basically correct. The current millage, as shown in the millage chart below, is actually 25.8163.
Columbia Borough already has the highest school tax millage rate, as well as the highest overall millage rate (municipal, school, county) in Lancaster County, at 36.7273 mills.
Shhhhh... It's OK. Just keep opening the wallets.
ReplyDeleteQuestionS to the CBSD Board:
- Is there a plan do reduce spending?
- What measures are being taken to reduce spending expenditures to operate?
- Would it not be more cost effective to house all schools in on building complex?
- Ever think that you should start running this district as a business and start running it fiscally smart?
