Cold Spring Harbor school board removes Proposition 2 language from election notice
Summary
The Cold Spring Harbor Central School District board voted to amend its annual election legal notice to remove language about Proposition 2, which had proposed a $150,000 appropriation for a museum society; the meeting included a brief executive session for legal purposes with no reported actions.
The Cold Spring Harbor Central School District board voted to amend its legal notice for the district's annual election to remove all language related to "Proposition 2," the board announced during its meeting. The read language for Proposition 2 had proposed authorizing the board to appropriate $150,000 for community educational programs and for operation and maintenance of capital improvements for a museum society during the 2026–2027 school year and annually thereafter, to be raised by a tax levy.
Board leadership presented the amendment to delete the full text of Proposition 2 from the published legal notice and called for a first and second; the chair then put the motion to a voice vote and confirmed that those present were in favor. The transcript records the board's confirmation of approval but does not include a roll-call tally of yes or no votes for that motion.
Earlier in the meeting, the board voted to enter an executive session for legal purposes and later returned to public session. The meeting record states explicitly that "No actions were taken" during the executive session. Motions to open and to adjourn the meeting were also made and approved during the session.
