Scotia-Glenville school budget to ask for 0.13 percent levy increase - at the cap | The Daily Gazette
SECTIONS
The Scotia-Glenville school board will be asking district voters to support a 0.13 percent local tax levy increase on its $59.1 million proposed budget at the May 18 budget vote.
The ballot will also include a $12.8 million capital project focused on upgrading key infrastructure and mechanical systems in the district.
The budget proposal would increase district spending 1.66 percent and, while it maintains programs and services to students, the budget includes a $200,000 reduction by not replacing two retiring elementary school teachers. During a budget presentation at the end of March, Scotia-Glenville Superintendent Susan Swartz said the district could balance out its incoming kindergarten classes at 20 students without replacing the retiring teacher.
School districts eye tax cap overrides; Johnstown, Fonda-Fultonville, Scotia-Glenville indicate intent | The Daily Gazette
SECTIONS
A handful of Capital Region school districts are considering asking local voters to override tax caps when school budgets go up for approval in May.
At least three area school districts Johnstown, Fonda-Fultonville and Scotia-Glenville indicated an intent to go above their local tax cap in an annual March filing with the state Comptroller’s Office. Also, Niskayuna school board members at a recent meeting expressed support for going above their limit if needed to spare layoffs.
The districts all face a different budget situation, and divergent local tax caps, but if they decide to propose budgets that raise levies about those limits, they will need the support of 60 percent of district voters.
