District Budget VoteSet for Wednesda y

With less than a week before its proposed budget forthe 1971-72 school year faces voter reaction at the pollsnext Wednesday, the Bayport -- lue Point SchoolDistrict finds itself at an impasse in negotiationsbetween its teaching staff and the Board of Education.At a negotiations session held April 26, negotiators for both the

Board of Education and the Bayport-BIue Point EducationAssociation, representing teacher* in salary and fringe benefitnegotiations , mutually agreed that they are at impasse. Thefollowing statement was made jointly by the two groups :

"The Board and Teacher negotiators of the Bayport-BIue PointSchool District find themselves at a state of impasse for the 1971-72contract. The services of the Public Employment Relations Boardhave been requested. We are all optimistic that the services of thePublic Employment Relations Board will help us to resolve ourproblems."

The impasse- the failure to agree on matters of salary and otherissues-is the first, to be announced in this area, but educationalauthorities on all levels predict that the financial crisis now faced byeducation and taxpayers will cause this to be "the year of the im-passe" in many districts.

A spokesman for the Bayport-BIue Point District reports officialsare currently awaiting a decision by PERB as to whether it will senda mediator in an effort to resolve the stalemate, or go directly to thefact-finding step, which results in a study and recommendations bythe PERB representative.

Meanwhile , district residents will gather for the district annualmeeting at 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 4, at the gymnasium of theJames Wilson Young High School, Bayport. Voting will be Held from2 to 9 p.m. Wednesday, May 5, at the James Wilson Young HighSchool .

The total of the proposed 1971-V2 budget is $5,551,565, an increase of$453,977 over the previous budget. The anticipate tax rates for thebudget are as follows: The estimated true value of Bayport- BIuePoint for'next year will" be--$67,-863,839. This will produce an an-ticipated tax in Bayport of $17.82 per-SlOOof assessed valuation , anincrease of 87 cents over the previous rate; and $25.17 per $100 inBlue Point , and increase of $1 25 per $100 in the tax rate The dif-ferences in the tax rates between Bayport and Blue Point are theresult of the differences in the equalization-rates in effect in thetowns in which they lie. Blue' Point is in Brookhaven Town , whileBayport lies in Islip Town. While the votes differ , the taxation isequal.

It is important to note that the budget totals to be put before thepublic next Wednesday do not include any raises other than normalincrements for advancement on the salary scale. Increases bey ondthe normal increments will increase the total of the budget in thiscategory, and will result in an additional tax rate increase to cover.Many school districts have put off their annual voting day in order tocomplete negotiations before voting on their budgets, and to getfirmer pictures of state aid revenues they will receive.
