2021-22 Spending Plan: Monroe Officials Find Budget Reductions

MONROE — An initial proposal for a $93,281.657 budget for 2021-22 has already been further reduced by First Selectman Ken Kellogg.
Mr. Kellogg made his initial budget presentation to the Town Council on Monday, February 8, but later announced the additional reductions, bringing the projected increase down potentially to where taxes might rise less than 3%.
The original total breaks down into $29,742,774 for municipal government, $61,791,068 for the education department and an additional $1,747,815 for capital appropriations and contingency.
Later in the week, Mr. Kellogg wrote, “My budget was delivered to Town Council on February 8, 2021, as required by Town Charter. Since Monday, we have received two pieces of encouraging news. First, the governor’s proposed state budget suspends a previously scheduled reduction in state aid from the Education Cost Sharing grant.
