Armitage urges province cooperation over education costs

Board of Education Chairman F. Armitage criticizes provincial grants as the source of rising costs while municipalities shoulder most of the burden. He notes Halton’s 1969 budget balances pupil increases with operation costs, and that a provincial reform is needed. Elementary cost per pupil is 587 and secondary 1027, with urban comparisons cited. Construction progresses on the second of three new apartment buildings on Churchill Road South.
