Curb spending like other districts in budget debate
Critics from Monroe-Woodbury urge trustees to study neighboring Washingtonville and Valley Central budgets to curb costs. The board faces re submission of an $8.6 million proposal after May 5 defeat, with Washingtonville at $6.08 million and Valley Central at $6.132 million. Spokesman Robert Burgeson of ROUSE claims Monroe-Woodbury overspends on instructional services and insurance, noting higher real property taxes and differences in bus leasing. He accuses district leaders of insulting taxpayers by offering multiple options of the same rejected budget.
