Ira Weiss, Esq. Distributed copies of a decision issued by Judge Alan Penkower dated May 9, 1997 with one of the issues being the manner of calculation under Act 203, regarding deducting the amount of grants, an authority is entitled to trend the historical cost of the current cost before the grants are deducted. The obvious effect of this is to better enable authorities to cover costs of projects.
