Voters Approve Saratoga Springs Public Library Budget

SARATOGA SPRINGS — By a vote of 152 to 8, Saratoga Springs School District residents last week approved a tax levy of $5,205,672 to operate the Saratoga Springs Public Library in FY 2021-22. Frank Brady and Carol Daggs, both of Saratoga Springs, were elected to the library’s Board of Trustees. Brady was reelected, and Daggs was elected to fill a vacancy created by the expiration of Kristen Dart’s term.

The library serves the residents of the Saratoga Springs City School District, and funds for the library are collected when school taxes are collected. The proposed FY 21-22 budget contains no increase over the amount levied in FY 20-21. The most recent increase was approved in 2019. 

An estimated $530,717 will be available from sources other than FY 21-22 property taxes. The tax amount for public library purposes appears as a separate item on school district tax bills.
