Taxpayers Push Chester-Upland Budget Fight at Budget Talk
Chester-Upland School Board faces fierce criticism over a proposed 22-mill tax increase aimed at balancing a 28.34 million dollar budget. Upland officials warn the equalization formula would lift taxes 16 percent for Upland property owners, boosting millage from 68 to 90 and sparking a 53 percent overall tax rise. Board president Warwick defends taxpayer duties, pledges cuts through June 30 while noting utility costs and fringe benefits drive the gap.
