Volney plans small tax cut in tentative 2017 budget
Volney Town Board eyes a tentative 2017 budget with a projected overall tax rate around 4.56 per thousand, down from 4.63, aided by higher CHIPS funds for the highway department. The plan includes a 2 percent pay raise for most town employees, stable fire taxes, and a total spending near 1.95 million, with taxes raised to the general fund and highway fund. The board scheduled a Nov 17 public hearing to forward the plan, which relies on 154,472 in unexpended fund balance and CHIPS gains. The Volney Fire Corporation seeks 338,536 in property taxes and the town continues to override the state tax cap since 2012 due to water district growth.
