Millage Rates

The Department of Blogosphere Safety has issued a threadjack alert for this blog. The previous thread discussing digitalization of board records has turned into a millage discussion. Here's the millage information that was referenced.

And the comment:
Threadjack Alert!!!

Anyone notice the millage chart in today's BCCT?

Interesting to note:

The Morrisville School Millage of 187.3 Mills is 58.84 mills above the county average of 128.46 Totals rounded.) This represents a 31% above average amount.

The Morrisville Municipal millage of 35.9 is 26.15 mills above the county average of 9.75. This represents a 73% above average amount.

So, I ask all council people who are reading, including a certain High Public Official, who needs their expenses examined more closely? It seems that the erstwhile council, while decrying the runaway expenses of the schools, is doing a far worse job of keeping costs contained relative to their peers.

2008-09 millage rates in Bucks County

And the BCCT article: On July 1 Bucks County updated its website to reflect the current millage rates for the county’s school districts now that all school budgets for 2008-2009 have passed. Below are those rates, from highest total millage to lowest. Municipalites and school districts with high property values typically assess lower millage rates. Towns and districts with low property values have to boost the millage to collect sufficient tax revenue.
