 CRRDG: Jamestown   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The issue is whether Chautauqua County should end its practice of charging back the operating costs for JCC to municipalities and pay all of the associated operating costs-including the City of Jamestown's share of operating costs-from the County's general revenues.
Usually, the sponsors in a regional community college such as JCC must divide the local share of the capital costs according to their respective equalized assessed valuations.[7] The practice with respect to JCC differs, however.
In the case of community colleges, however, the full-time tuition rate cannot exceed $2,500 per academic year.[19] JCC currently charges New York residents the maximum tuition rate for full-time enrollment and $92 per credit hour for part-time enrollment.[20] Out-of-state residents are charged a higher tuition rate.
