Scarsdale Town Club backs library bond and school reform
At the January 29 meeting the Town Club approved an $800,000 library bond referendum for Scarsdale Village Library renovation and expansion. The committee headed by Anthony F. Lazzara argued modern services require a cultural center, while noting School Library System changes do not duplicate village services. The group also reviewed Fleischmann Commission funding ideas and BOCES expenditure updates led by Robert Zipf, urging continued local control and broader interdistrict cooperation.
