Under last year's $6.4 million budget, school tax increases ranged from seven cents to 72 cents per $1,000 of assessed value. Here, using the figures cur- rently available, is how the $7 million austerity budget alone will increase the tax rates: Altona, up $1.04 per $1,000 of assessed vahte; Champlain, up 48 cents per $1,000 of assessed value; Chazy, up 92 cents per $1,000 of assessed value; and Mooers, up $1.03 per $1,000 assessed value. Here is how approval of the seven propositions, totaling $151,358, alone will increase tax rates: Altona, $1.30 per $1,000 of assessed value; Champlain, $1.15; Chazy, $1.34; and Mooers, $1.20. Here is how a combination of the austerity budget plus the seven propositions will increase tax rates: Altona, $2.34 per $1,000 ^>f assessed value; Champlain, $1.63; Chazy, $2.26; and Mooers $2.23.

This year, under the proposed $7.1 million budget that was rejected by distrrict voters the tax rate was expected to in- crease from $17.36 per $1,000 to $19.69 or ($2.33 per $1,000).

To get aewt m Ti^^ write Ste^c » Requirements for voting CHAMPLAIN — To vote in Northeastern Clinton Central School's referendum Tuesday on-$151,358 in non-mandated items, a person must be: a U.S. citizen, at least 18 years old, and have lived within the district for at least 30 days before the vote. Voters will be going to the polls to vote on the non-mandated items, which have been put in the form of seven propositions, because they legally cannot be included in the district's $7 million austerity budget. Voting will take place from 2 to 9 p.m. on Tuesday in the junior high school cafeteria. $38,340 to $46,175. Total- state aid- <*e» -the $310,500 in added aid to be receiv- ed on the energy project) has in- creased from last year's figure of $3,946,64 to $4,133,324 under the austerity budget. Revenue sources other than state aid are also on the rise, such as the increase in the total amount of tuition Vermont stu- dent are paying to attend NCCS. Under last year's budget, tuition from Vermont students was listed as $45,000. Under the austerity budget, that has in- creased to $67,000. Total revenues, adjusted for the energy funds, have increased $191,722 from last year's budget. Total revenues (adjusted for the energy project) have gone from $4,080,302 to $4,272,020. The increase in revenues, however, isn't keeping up with the increase in expenses. The $7,095,028 austerity budget plus $151,358 in non-mandated items totals $7,246,386, but when adjusted for the energy project ($361,014), comes to $6,885,372.

That tax levy reflected a tax in- crease ranging from seven cents to 73 cents per $1,000 of assessed value. The proposed 1984-85 budget, which was defeated by a 2-to-l margin on May 9, called for a tax levy of $2,231,401. That tax levy reflected a tax increase ranging from $1.23 to $2.33 per $1,000 of assessed value. The austerity budget, which was adopted by the NCCS board on May 17, calls for a tax levy of $2,137,504. That tax levy reflects a tax increase ranging from 48 cents to $1.04 per $1,000 of assess- ed value. The austerity budget plus $151,358 in non-mandated items (propositions) reflects a tax levy of $2,288,862. That tax levy reflects a tax increase ranging from $1.63 to $2.34 per $1,000 of te.
