As Gene said above, the numbers do tell a lot. One important thing to note is that, as a percentageRead More of the total tax base in the City of Glen Cove, the majority clearly voted down this budget. I don't have the exact figure, but if you combine those residences that lie within the Middle and Connolly voting zones, you've got at least two-thirds of the entire tax base right there. So, as I previously said in another post, I strongly advise the school board AND the incoming administration to heed these tentative results and not go on a spending spree. In fact, you might want to strongly reconsider some of the spending items you've already got in *this* budget.

The law should be changed that only those that are burden by the tax be eligible to vote. Why shouldRead More people that have no financial interest given the vote on things that are not directly connected to them. Sure they may have children going to the schools, but they are going free on the backs of property owners.

JohnP, I'd like to know what freebies the Glen Cove School District provides above what is stateRead More mandated that are any different than the provisions from any other school district in NYS. Do you think this district offers services out of the goodness of their hearts? I'd check first on the ignored illegal housing issues which put the district on the hook for publicly educating those kids.
