GLOVERSVILLE The Gloversville Public Library will ask voters to approve a $50,000 increase to the annual tax levy in May.
The Gloversville Public Library Board of Trustees on Tuesday approved a motion setting the library’s proposed tax levy for the 2021-22 fiscal year at $503,695, representing an 11 percent increase over the $453,695 annual tax levy currently in place.
Under the proposed tax levy increase, taxpayers whose properties are assessed at $100,000 would pay a total of approximately $72.75 in annual library taxes, an increase of approximately $7.22 per year. The final tax rate under the tax levy would be set by the Gloversville Enlarged School District in August once final equalization rates are provided by the state.
