Board opens public hearing on Lansingburgh 2026–27 budget that keeps tax levy at 0%
Summary
The Lansingburgh Central School District Board opened a public hearing on the proposed 2026–27 budget, presented by School Business Official Linda Klime. The plan carries a 0% tax levy and will be decided by voters on May 19, 2026 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The Lansingburgh Central School District Board of Education on May 11 opened a public hearing on the proposed 2026–27 school budget after a motion by Board Member Daniella Richards, seconded by Thomas Zakrzewski, carried 7–0.
School Business Official Linda Klime presented the proposed budget and told the board the plan "carried a 0% tax levy" and that the district will hold the budget vote and board election on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, between 11:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. The hearing was opened to allow public review and comment before that vote.
Why it matters: a 0% tax levy means the district is presenting a budget that does not seek an increase in the local tax levy for 2026–27; voters will decide whether to approve that spending plan on May 19. The presentation to the board did not record additional line-item details in the meeting minutes; the official budget document accompanies the public notice for the May 19 vote.
Next steps: the budget will be on the ballot May 19 at Turnpike Elementary’s polling location. The board held the hearing to satisfy the legal requirement for public disclosure and local review prior to the vote.
