Lyndonville BOE meets Friday to discuss next steps after budget defeat
LYNDONVILLE – The Lyndonville Board of Education has scheduled a special meeting for 6 p.m. on Friday to discuss the next steps after the district’s proposed budget was defeated in a public vote on Tuesday.
The meeting on Friday will be in Jr./Sr. High School Library.
The district’s proposed $19,194,000 budget was voted down with 172 opposed and 129 votes in favor.
The budget would have increased spending by 9.8 percent or by $1,719,670 from the $17,474,330 in 2025-26. The tax levy in the proposed budget would increase by 2.5 percent from $4,758,692 to $4,877,659.
A contingency budget would mean reducing spending by another $266,495 to get the budget to $18,927,505.
