Unionville-Chadds Ford School District’s proposed final budget for 2024-2025, which will be up for a vote on June 17, calls for revenues of $105.81 million and expenditures of nearly $105.84 million. It also calls for property tax increases of 2.07% for Chester County property owners and 11.06% for property owners in Chadds Ford Township, the only Delaware County municipality in the district. Millage rates in the proposal are 32.61 mills in Chester County and 18.57 mills in Chadds Ford. The figures may still change between now and the final vote in June. School Board Member Brian Schartz, who lives in Chadds Ford, said he hopes the tax burden will be reduced by the June 17 vote, specifically saying he’d like to see the Chadds Ford millage rate drop to less than 10 mills.
