New Lebo Tax Study: Volunteers Needed

School Board member Jo Posti emails the following:

Friends,

Please share this information with Mt. Lebanon residents or taxpayers who may be interested and available to serve on this commission. The school board developed the structure and application process at Monday night’s meeting and we would like to encourage as many people who are interested and available to apply in order to achieve a good balance of diversity among members. Please note the short deadline for applications as well as the finite time commitment involved. Additional information as well as an application form is on the District’s web site, www.mtlsd.org.

Mt. Lebanon Tax Study Commission to be Formed

Act 1 of 2006 requires all school boards to appoint a tax study commission no later than September 14 to study the existing taxes levied in the community. According to Act 1, the commission selection criteria “shall reflect the socio-economic, age, and occupational diversity of the school district to the extent possible.” The Mt. Lebanon School board is looking for up to eight interested Mt. Lebanon residents and taxpayers who represent specific demographic segments of the community willing to serve on the commission. The commission will study the demographics and tax history of the school district in order to make a non-binding recommendation to the school board concerning future taxes. The work of the commission will be completed by December 11, 2006.The commission members will be selected at the September 11 Board Meeting. The application deadline is August 29, 2006.

Applications may be emailed to jklein@mtlsd.net
