11 ~ Friday, March 14, 1986 - North Shore News Tax trim loses vote From Pago 1 To pass the unamended 1986-87 budget was to undo that trend of tax decreases, he said. TOP SOIL SALE. 100 yd. delivered locally — (under 6 yds. extra. cartage) Sale 2. on: Mar. 23/86 Regan pointed a finger at District 44 salaries, which account for 80 per cent of the budget, as the major factor in the education tax raises faced by North Van- couver residents. He said the District 44 school board had voted in favor of every salary increase brought before it. North Vancouver teachers, he said, while being of above average quality, were earning $991 more at salary step five and $1,174 more at salary step six than their Van- couver schoo! district counterparts. Every Friday with Tim Renshaw in Table Hopping Regan’s motion to trim the extra $3.9 million required from local taxpayers back to $1.9 million, and thereby reduce the tax increase to 22 per cent, was defeated in a 3-2 vate. Voting against the amended mo- tion, Lynas said she took issue with Regan’s continual emphasis on wages: ‘‘Education is a labor intensive business, salaries will always be a large part of its budget. As far as [ am concerned teachers earn every penny they make, and [ don't see why they should be made to subsidize education.”* Cable TV.
