Why do we need a project? • The district conducted a 5 year facilities study and report as required by NYS. The purpose was to identify physical plant items to be addressed by the district over the next 5 years. • A committee of community members, faculty & staff, administrators and Board of Education members reviewed the findings and created a priority list. • After further analysis the BOE created the final list of items to be included in the project. • The items included are primarily large maintenance items and energy saving measures that will save money on utilities.
How will we pay for the project? • Total project cost $10,900,000 • NYS Building Aid $9,761,800 (NYS will aid 90% to ensure safe and healthy educational facilities). • Excel Aid $743,200 (EXCEL Aid is allocated from NYS specifically for our district to use on costs related to health, safety and energy efficiency). • Capital Reserve $145,000 ( Several years ago taxpayers approved the creation of a Capital Reserve to use on a future project). • Fund Balance $250,000 (The district will designate a portion of it’s existing fund balance toward the project). • Impact on the local budget -0-
