2, Elizabethtown Phone 367-1448 S( hool Superintendent Retires After 20 Years Mo Tax Dncrease is Dn 1975-76 School Seen Budget -J if- A budget of $5,004,755 was approved by the Derry Township School board for the 1975-76 fiscal year. The local tax rate will remain the same. The real estate tax remained at the rate of 46 mills, the per capita tax at $5. the residence tax at $8. and the occupation The school district will also collect a $10.00 occupational privilege tax from residents who are employed in Derry Township and a ''2 per cent realty transfer tax.

The township board of supervisors is currently collecting the full amount of both taxes and the school district will exercise the right to one-half of the taxes, effective Jan. 1. 1976. The total budget represents a 1 per cent increase over the 1974-75 budget of $4,955,000 and a 4.6 per cent increase over the projected actual 1974-75 expenditures of $4,807,000. The largest expenditure for any single category is the $2,516,166 budgeted for instruction (principal and teacher salaries, and textbooks), followed by operation and maintenance costs of $542,385.

and debt service at $401,340. Local tax source revenue totals $2,925,000. and state monies, reflecting a 3.7 per cent reduction, total $923,045. Revenue from federal sources is $34,800, an increase of 34.6 per cent over last year. The budget reflects a decrease of 7.7 per cent in local taxes or $242,000 from the projected 1974-75 amount.

As a result of a Dauphin County court case. Derry Township can no longer collect occupation tax from non-working housewives, resulting in a $48,000 decrease in school district revenue. Revenue from the 1 per cent Earned Income Tax (EIT) will decrease $345,000 because the Derry Township Supervisors have elected to exercise their right to half of the 1 per cent EIT. In 1975-76. the district will also suffer losses on investments of $60,000 and a .0212 per cent reduction or $147,000 in the basic subsidy aid ration from the state.

With no change in school district taxes, and a total revenue loss of $536,000. additional revenue will come from a surplus of $734,410 from the 1974- 75 school year. Board members stressed the probability of a tax increase for 1976-77 due to the major losses in tax revenue for 1975- 76 and the inflationary costs of operating the school district. In other action the board authorized the business nruinager. Leonard Hill, to refund occupation taxes paid to the school district in 1973-74 Cultural Center Has Pottery Class The Hershey Educational and Cultural Center will offer Pottery for Youth (for ages 9-16) from July 21 to August 5 at the Hershey Community Center Building.

Bowers said that employes were never allowed to smoke in production areas, but in the pasl. had to go to washrooms or othe areas for this purpose.

Another worker reported that management maintained that under the contract with the union, they could take these measures. He said that although management wants smoking and eating limited to the new lunch areas, some of them are not yet finished. He said that sofas were removed from women's restrooms while in other areas of the plant, "no smoking" signs were put up in the rest-roonns but furniture was not re-movid. The basis for some of the worker's complaints is that the new lunch and break areas are farther from work stations than the old rest facilities. "The whole situation is being stud ied right now and we are working with the union to rescilve it." Bowers said.

Earl Light, business manager of the Chocolate Workers Local 464. said the problem could probably have been avoiided if management had told the union ahead of time whait was going to be done. "The engineers are trying to correct some of the problems that came about through the new lunch and break setup and hope fully it will be resolved to very one's satisfaction," he said. The Derry Township Planning Commission has reviewed an application form and requirement checklist for subdividers and their engineers in an effort to familiarize them with township requirements. The forms include specifications for preliminary and final plans.

Commission chairman Wil-iard Johns said the checklist was devised because "we were getting so many submissions (of subdivision plans) that weren't meeting Planning Commission, Tri-County, and DER (Department of Environmental Resources) Keiser estimated that 50 to 75 per cent of the subdivision plans submitted to the commission within the past year were either rejected, or approved pending correction. At a recent meeting, two out of three subdivision plans were rejected and action on the remaining plan was tabled for review by the township engineer and the Tri-County Planning Commission. In all three cases, the plans did not meet a number of subdivision requirements and must be resubmitted with appropriate corrections and additions in order to obtain Commission approval. "In most cases it is an ignorance of requirements on the part of the subdivider, rather than a willful negligence of the laws," said Johns. Composed by township Code Enforcement Officer Jeff Keiser, the checklist includes requirements from the township zoning and subdivision ordinances, and provisions of the Tri-County subdivision ordinance.

Application forms and checklists will be available at the township office. Subdividers will be required to submit the application form with the subdivision plan, and the checklist is intended to serve TRUTV I is coming to Hershey donday, July 21.

Hershey Foods Corp. workers have returned to work and progress is reported in talks between management nad labor.

Approximately 500 employes in the Hershey Foods Corp. plant stopped working early last week in connection with a dispute over eating and smoking areas. The stoppage included wrapping, paper box and confectionary employes. Kenneth Bowers, director of public relations for Hershey Foods, says that during the last year some 34 lunch and break areas have been installed throughout the plant. All smoking and eating is restricted to these areas.

"This was done as part of an overall program establishing special areas to provide better and more modern facilities for the employes and to ensure cleanliness in a food plant." Bowers said. The employes disagree, however. They said that couches, chairs, and benches have been removed from the washrooms in the wrapping area of the plant and that smoking is no longer allowed in the washrooms. "This no-smoking in the washrooms doesn't bother us so much." an employe explained. "But a lot of people thought it was nice to have chairs in the washrooms, and those that didn't smoke could be in the lunchrooms.

Now. the lunchrooms get very filled up and non-smokers complain about the smoke," he said. Bowers confirmed the fact that chairs and benches have.
