PUBLIC HEARINGS:
Public Hearing on Tentative 2021-2022 Village Budget.Note: This public hearing will be continued at the Meeting of April 5 at 6 pm. A presentation providing an overview of the tentative proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2021/2022 can be viewed by clicking on Agendas from the Village website and selecting the March 29 meeting. Manager King will present brief highlights of the proposed 2021/22 budget which calls for a 3.82% increase in the tax rate. This does not comply with the NYS Tax Levy Cap. This year’s allowable limit is $12,341,899, an increase of $412,549 over last year. The proposed levy for the 21/22 FY is $12,474,070 which is $132,171 over the allowable limit. The median assessed property in the Village would pay $149 more in taxes. Non-tax revenue is down $2,187,047 from the prior year. Last year, in anticipation of pandemic related loss of revenue, the Board cut $415,388 in expenses. The 2021/22 proposed budget cuts an additional $365,810 over and above last year’s cuts.
