CENTRAL FULTON

SCHOOL DISTRICT

Notice of Act 1

Referendum Exception

Pursuant to Act 1, the Pennsylvania Department of Education publishes an index percentage applicable to the school district. The school district real estate tax increase for the next fiscal year is limited to the index percentage unless the proposed tax rate is approved by voters pursuant to a referendum or the school district qualifies for an Act 1 exception. As a result of special circumstances covered by an Act 1 referendum exception, a tax rate percentage increase above the index is required to balance the school district budget for the next fiscal year. This tax increase is required to provide a quality education program as reflected in the School District Preliminary Budget.

The school district intends to seek approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Education or the County Court as required by Act 1 for an exception allowing an increase of the real estate tax as reflected in the School District Preliminary Budget. The Preliminary Budget is available for public inspection at the school district office, 151 E. Cherry Street, McConnellsburg, PA 17233. On written request by any school district resident or taxpayer, the school district will provide a copy of the referendum exception application.

Todd Township – village of Knobsville sewer system analysis and upgrades project 2. CareerLink/job training office building accessibility upgrades project 3. Borough of McConnellsburg curb cuts up-grades project 4. Taylor Township municipal building accessibility upgrades project FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT The Fulton County commissioners have determined that the project has been considered categorically excluded under HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58 from National Environmental Policy Act requirements and will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at the Fulton County Commissioners Office at the above address, between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Public comments

Any individual, group, or agency disagreeing with this determination or wishing to comment on the project may submit written comments to Karen Hann at the commissioners office. All comments received by February 27, 2012, will be considered by the Fulton County commissioners, prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which notice they are addressing.

Environmental certification

The Fulton County commissioners certify to DCED that Rodney McCray, serving as the certifying officer in this capacity as the chairman of the Fulton County commissioners, consents to accept the jurisdiction of the federal courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. DCED’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows the use of these program funds.

Objections to release of funds

DCED will accept objections to its release of funds and the Fulton County commissioners certification received by March 2, 2012, or for a period of 15 days from its receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following basis: (a) the certification was not in fact executed by the certifying officer of Fulton County; (b) Fulton County has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding by HUD regulations 24 CFR Part 58; (c) the grant recipient has committed funds or incurred costs not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by DCED; or (d) another federal agency, acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted in written finding to DCED that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality.

Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedure (24 CFR Part 58) and may be addressed to the Department of Community and Economic Development, Office of Community Development, 400 North Street, 4th Floor Commonwealth Keystone Building, Harrisburg PA 17120.
