After not having a budget vote in 2020, the Riverhead Free Library is proposing a 2021-22 budget that raises spending by less than 1% and raises the tax levy by less than 3%.
The $4,098,791 proposed budget is up for a vote on Tuesday, April 6, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the library.
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the library board voted on May 13 last year to cancel the 2020-2021 budget vote which had been scheduled for April and have the library operate its 2020-21 fiscal year on the same budget as the prior fiscal year, according to library director Kerrie McMullen-Smith.
