School boards lament funding shakeup and budget timing
Bev Hendricks, chair of the School Trustees, says boards know little about the new provincial funding blocks and tax implications. She notes districts must draft 1990/91 budgets by March 15 without final block totals and tax figures, urging a late-April extension and government clarity. She adds local tax setting for education has been moved to Victoria, leaving boards unable to control taxes.
