PROPOSED 2010-2011 SCHOOL BUDGET

The budget proposal for 2010-2011 represents a 2.57% increase over the current year budget and will require an estimated increase in the property tax levy of 5.48%.  The first 2.15% of that increase is necessary to make up for a projected 7% decline in revenue from sources other than property taxes next year (primarily state aid and county sales tax revenue).  Due to changes in equalization rates and assessed valuations, an estimated tax rate increase of 1.66% in Tarrytown and 8.27% in Sleepy Hollow would be required. The significant gap that exists between reduced revenue and increased expenses cannot be filled simply by increasing property taxes.  Consequently, the budget proposal reflects cutbacks of nearly $3 million in expenditures below the level that would have been necessary to support a “business as usual” budget.  The goal was to achieve savings through improved efficiency in all budget categories without eliminating programs and services. The March 4 Budget summary presentation to the Board of Education can be viewed by clicking here.  The full budget proposal can viewed by clicking here.
