2012-13 budget approved by district voters; three elected to BOE

Results are now official for the May 15, 2012, Guilderland Central School District school budget vote and board of education election. District residents approved an $89,259,860 budget for the 2012-13 school year by a vote of 2258 (yes) to 954 (no). This budget represents a 0.34 percent increase in spending over the current year’s budget and will result in a 2.20 percent tax levy increase for district residents. Tax rates are also estimated to increase by the same amount.

Voters also approved a $1,050,800 bus and equipment proposition to purchase ten new buses and a maintenance box truck by a vote of 2100 (yes) to 1087 (no) and elected three members to the Board of Education:
