Montgomery County to slow tax rate increase in 1986 budget
County Executive Charles W. Gilchrist outlined a fiscal 1986 budget at least 7 percent higher than current spending while pledging to lower the property tax rate so homeowners would not pay more than the inflation rate of 5.5 percent. He defended funding for schools and delayed one planned upper county high school, citing enrollment projections. The plan expands after school programs, day care, and child abuse prevention, with reserve considerations for potential aid cuts and pay-as-you-go financing to ease bond demand.
