ALTAMONT AVE. SCHENECTADY, N* Y, OPEN MQN. THROUGH SAT. TILL 5:00 —' FRIDAY TILL 9:00 During .the month of March the board of education and its citizens advisory committee will hold a series of public meetings with many or- ganizations throughout the Guilder- land Central school district. At each of the 'monthly P. T. A. meetings, which ar& open, to all the public of the district, and alt the monthly meet- ings of service groups, business men's associations and community improve- ment associations, the board and its citizens committee is endeavoring to explain the entire proposed construc- tion program for the 29 elementary classrooms in the form of additions to the present elementary schools and the 600-iJupil junior high school. The schedule for the public meet- ings of the \district P. T. A.'s is as follows: Monday, Mar, 11 — Fort Hunter, 9 p. m. Monday, Mar. 18 — Altamont, 9 p. m. * • Monday,-Mar. 25 — Guilderland, 9 p. m. Tuesday, Mar. 26 — Westmere, 8:15 p. m. In the five 'meetings held to date, the following questions seemed to toe asked more frequently than any others: 1,. Why do' we need bus garages we already have one located at Guilderland Center? The board has indicated that the bus .garage alt Guilderland Center was originally constructed to house 13 buses. At the present time the district owns 1 20 buses. By much fjockeying, the garage attendants have jbeeh able to house 18 of the buses m' the present building. Two of .them, at the time being, are being housed in the town garage. As en- rollments increase it will be neces- sary to purchase more buses. It is the belief of the board of education that all buses should be housed at all times to prevent vandalism and to insure prompt operation in incle- ment weather. To do this, the dis- trict plans to erect a six-stall garage on the Westmere Elementary site and a two-stall garage on the Fort Hunter site. Buses stored in these locations will not 'be required to drive the* many wasted \dead-head\ miles that are now being caused by •the storing of all buses at the one central location in Guilderland Cen- ter. These proposed garages will be constructed of cinder block with roll- ing steel doors and a roof supported by light bar joists or poured in place with concrete. _ 2. Why didn't the board of educa- tion adopt the recommendation of the population forecast committee that a single 14-room elementary school toe erected east of the Thru- way in the McKownville-North Berh,- lehem section of ttie district? After a. thorough investigation by fee: plant fatalities' committee it was deterrnind that there was no con- crete evidence that much more home construction was going to occur iri- the McKownviile - North Bethlehem area. Therefore, it was felt that the greatest amount of ..enrollment that could toe expected would occur west of the Thruway, particularly in the StateFarm-Guilderland area. Since the 29 classrooms could toe more economically constructed in the form of several large additions than in the form of a new elementary school and smaller additions, it was recom- mended that the board consider the plant facilities findings. Therefore, the board' has adopted 'the program of furnishing four additions to the present elementary schools. 3. Frequently, the board and the citizens' committee are asked to compare the tax rates of the Guilder- land Central district with neighbor- ing districts. The board of educa- tion has drawn up a comparison of current school tax rates in neighbor- ing comparable district In order to equate the tax rates, the various dis- tricts reported their rates on true value. It is found 'that the ~Guilder- land rate compares most favorably with other districts. These tax fates, on true value, are as follows- Scbtia-Glenvil'le, $16.31; North Col- onde, $1423; South Colonde, $1413- Bast Greenbush, $13T85; Bethlehem' $14.73; Niskayuna, $12.32; Guilder- land, $13.05. At the present time the board;of education reports that it is unable to ascertain what the tax rates will be in future years in other districts. The board noted that the Bethlehem Central' school district had a tax rate of $61.22 in the Town of New Scotland and a rate of $42.70 on assessed valuation in the Town of Bethlehem. Those portions of the Guilderland Central district lying in the towns of New Scotland and Bethlehem paid rates of only $57.07 and $39.58 oh assessed valuation 4. The Board of Education has been aSked if the water supply ait the Guilderland Central High school site is adequate to provide water for a new junaor N high school, particular- ly if a swimming pool is erected. When the waiter supply for the present high school was developed the engineers reported that the well furnished a tremendous volume of water pejr minute (it has\ a proven' capacity of 280 gallons per minute) and they indicated that it would be adequate to supply the high school and all of the village of Guilderland Center without depleting the supply There is ample water for a new high school with, or without, a swimming pool. Once the swimming pool is filled; the water is constantly re- circulated and re-cleaned and only a small amount of waiter is needed' to repenish.losses of evaporation, etc. '' 5. Will a simple majority or' a two-thirds majority be required' to pass the bond issue, and what de- •tenridnes the percentage? Under New State Educational, and' local finance law®, a school\ district may dridelbt itself to a total! of 10 per cent of its true value. The ft-ue value.of a School district is deter-\ mined toy applying the various' equalization rates ito • the existing Valuation totals of each of the iter* jitoriesf of the\ various towns com- posing the school district The school district may indefot itself to 10 »er' naiority vote, or it may indebt itself o more than 10 j>er cent of its true zialue by a •ttvo-tiBras majority of the oeople voting and by permission from he New York &&« Regents. It is estimated tet by the time x>nds are sold for lt f new proposed ssue, the Guilderland Central school listrict would have a debt limitation >f $5,167,000. Ttos^ would be 10 per •ent of the estimated true value of ii51,670,000. White the total out- standing indebtedness would amount 'JO $6,938,000 as of Nov. l, 1957, th e rtate building Q uota would reduce ;he net indebtedness of the district to less than $5,100,000. This means that the school di s j n rt. on the pro- posed' issue, would be within the Jimd'ts of tire 10 per cent indebtedness and would need only a simple ma- iority, 6. Will we be eligible under the Emergency Building Aid Provision of Section 3603C of the Education Law? Yes, from preliminary investiga- tions with the New York State De- partment of Education, it appears that the Guilderland Central school district will be eligible for emergency advances if it passes the proposed bond issue. The emergency act, as re-writJten and approved 'by the 1956 Legislature, requires that a district be declared hard-pressed and eligible for emergency building advances if it approves the issue by a majority vote, has a' net bonded indebtedness equal to IVi per cent of its true value, 'and is levyinja tax of $7.50 per $1,000 of true .taiuation on all educational costs, and is paying $3 or more per $1,000 for net debt serv- ice. The Guilderland district would 'be eligible under all of these cir- cumstances. Berne Westerlo REFORMED CHURCH Rev. Walter Kline, pastor. 9:30 a. m. Preaching services. 10:45 a. m. Sunday school.
