ALBANY The Albany Board of Education unanimously adopted a $270.3 million budget proposal Thursday night, a plan that includes a tax levy increase under 1 percent and makes use of one-time federal COVID-19 relief funds to accelerate post-pandemic rebuilding.
The 2021-22 budget proposal would support all current staff and programs for 2021-22, including the 180 positions the district has reinstated throughout the organization this spring.
