KINGSTON – The proposed Silver Lake budget appeared modest, but the assessments for the three towns are a different subject.
With net state aid expected to decrease by $160,051, Silver Lake Regional School Committee members are recommending after meeting last week that the administration create a prioritized list of around $160,000 in budget cuts that may include staff cuts.
Director of Business Services Christine Healy said state aide accounts for less than 30 percent of Silver Lake’s revenue, and there’s an increase of $538,489 in required minimum contribution, one of four factors that include the Silver Lake assessments.
The breakdown was a $335,620 increase for Kingston, a $146,502 increase for Halifax and a $56,367 increase for Plympton.
