Tomorrow is the vote..vote NO NOW or our taxes are going to continue to sky rocket.
Unless we do…Read More something this town will continue to spiral down. More taxes aren't going to help.
We need to cut expenses and get ourselves on a fiscally responsible plan.
Isn't that above the cap? Funny, when another news source mentioned 5 districts that are breaking…Read More the cap they didn't mention Smithtown. Dn't worry, the district will bully and scare the parents into voting yes by threatening programs instead of doing what they need to do which is reduce administrative costs.
We can all make a statement one way or another when we vote. However, that statement should be made…Read More on a state level not the local level. Boards of Ed are powerless to do any real cost cutting. The state needs to take this on. We need real reform in Albany to reduce the ever increasing pensions and life long benefits that educators enjoy. Combine this with letting Albany decide salary increases for all educators and we can guaranty tax reductions over the next few years. Its that simple, Boards cannot do these. Lets get Albany to move on these NOW!
