WPCNR'S ADAM IN ALBANY. By District 89 Assemblyman Adam T. Bradley. March 31, 2005: We are well on our way to the first on-time budget in 20 years after we began passing budget bills yesterday. Included in the Legislature’s budget is an increase in municipal aid to cities, towns and villages. The Legislature’s budget will provide White Plains more than $4.7 million, which is $540,000 more than last year. The funding can be used to provide important services like police and fire protection. It’s a win-win situation that will help preserve our quality of life, while keeping local property taxes down. Our budget protects the services that matter most – and I urge the governor to join us in moving these bills forward.”
Detailed below are all of the cities, towns and villages receiving aid under the Legislative budget plan in the 89th Assembly District. Overall, the Legislature’s budget provides nearly $450,000 more to municipalities in the 89th AD than the governor’s executive budget provided.
