Several examples are offered of situations in which, in order to be in compliance with one law or regulation, the district was in violation of another. Legislation cited which has caused such conflicts includes (l) the Auxiliary Services Act, (2) Title I, and (3) mandates to use the urban mass transit system for transporting children to school. Problems that arise as a result of funding sources are also discussed. Two examples of this sort are highlighted: (1) conflicts regarding the distribution of Federal subsidies and citizen-voted tax levies between public and parochial schools; and (2) conflicts in personnel policies because of the different requirements of local and Federal funding sources.
