Report of L.M.Chaffin on School Budget Matter.
To the Board2s of Commissioners and Board of Education of Harnett County:
On Monday, July 7th. 1924, you asked me to act as Arbitrator upon the issues
arising over a disagreement as to the School Budget for the = ession of 1924.1925. After cont
ference with members of both boards I fcupd that the disagreement was over the Operating
and Equipment Fund Only, and that the two Boars had reached an agreement as to the Palary
Fund ,nd the Fund Necessary to pay interest and Installments on Bonds, notes and Loans.
Under Section 187 of Chapter 136 of the Public Laws of 1923, which is the section
that provides the procedure in case of a disagreement between the gourd of Education and
the Board of County Commissioners as to the School Budget, the Clerk of the Superior Court
is called upon to act as Arbitrator upon the issues arising as to the Salary -Ound and
the Fund necessary to pay interest and Installments on Bonds. Notes and Loans. Since there
is no disagreement as to these two items in the Budget, and which two are the obby Items
upon which the Clerk of the Superior Court can be called upon to act as Arbitrator, I
resoectfully report to you that I have no decision to make and the matter is returned to
you to be proceeded with according to law.
This the 9th. day of July, 1924.
Respectfully, L.M.Chaffin, C.S.C.
