No tomorrow: Subchapter 3



Ohio residents unsettled by the editorial above can take some consolation in that they at least get to vote on school taxes.
In Sharon, Pa., last week, the school board approved a 7.9-mill property tax increase that will cost the average residential taxpayer an additional $130 next year in school property taxes.
In separate action, the board approved a new contract for nonteaching employees. What will the new contract cost? No one's saying until details are worked out -- although board members and the employees have voted to approve it.
Sharon residents can be reasonably confident that the contract isn't laced with concessions. They'll pay more so that others can make more.
