Tough decisions ahead at Roy-Hart
A year after they cut spending by 5 percent, yet taxes still went up by 5 percent, the Royalton-Hartland School District is facing another challenging budget.
Thursday Board of Education members met to get a picture of the revenue for the 2011-12 school year budget. And it wasn’t a pretty picture. Roy-Hart is facing a $1.4 million deficit, comprised of a rise in costs and a $492,000 decrease in state aid, according to Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s proposed budget.
That means in order to keep the tax levy — the budget revenue covered by the taxpayer — low for residents some major cuts will probably have to be made. If the current school year’s $22.1 million spending plan wasn’t altered, it would feature a tax levy increase of over 16 percent thanks to expected increases in costs.
