Pearl River School Board to Vote on 2013-14 Budget Adoption

The Pearl River Board of Education will vote on a resolution to adopt the proposed 2013-14 budget at tonight's meeting, which starts 7:30 p.m. at the district administration building. 

The proposed $62.2 million budget calls for a 1.68% tax increase for residents. The 3.5% tax levy increase comes in under the state mandated cap due to the exceptions built into the regulations.

The budget will go to the voters May 21 from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. in Pirate Cove at Pearl River High School. Two seats on the board of education will also be on the ballot, though incumbents Rob Davis and Michael Clohessy will be running unopposed. 

The board will also vote on approving the BOCES administrative budget for 2013-14 and three seats on the board.
