DeVencentis, Phil. "Taxes are flat under Manchester Regional budget, but one town still sees big increase", The Record, May 16, 2024. Accessed February 10, 2024. "The Manchester Regional school board has approved a $31.7 million budget for next year in which the overall tax burden shared by three constituent towns will remain flat. But the smallest of those communities — Prospect Park — is not deriving any benefit. In fact, residents there will be hit by a hefty tax hike while those in Haledon and in North Haledon are getting their bills lowered.... Those figures are calculated using a funding formula that was created by the state Department of Education in August 2013. In simple terms, half of the tax burden is based on enrollment, and the other half on ratables."
