The public hearing for the Impact Aid Application provides Tribal officials and parents/guardians of Native American children the opportunity to comment on the participation of Native American children on an equal basis in all programs and activities offered by the Alpine County Unified School District. Impact Aid is money paid by the federal government to school districts to make up for lost property taxes to schools when the government has taken land to use for Native American lands, military bases, or other use. The Impact Aid program has been in place since 1950 when President Truman recognized that the federal government owned lands which were not taxable by local governments, leaving school districts at a financial disadvantage. Impact Aid, therefore, replaces lost property taxes. |
