State May Take Over St Albans Schools If Tax Fails
Vermont Attorney General James Jeffords warned that if St. Albans voters reject a special school tax rate on Sept. 9 the state could assume operations of the public schools. He outlined options including a court writ of mandamus or a legislative session to impose the tax, and noted the loss of $281,000 in state aid if the city refuses to fund education. The crisis centers on a $2.74 tax increase sought to support a $1 million budget, bonds for a new elementary school, and services for 550 displaced Catholic students.
