At the May 28 Newburgh Schools Board of Ed Meeting the Utility Tax proposition was passed by the Board of Education. Two board members voted no: I believe that the No votes were Resch and Woodhull.

This means there will be a 3% tax on utilities for residents of the Newburgh School district. This is likely to show up on utility bills in October or so. Noone seems really certain how this will look on bills, or precisely which companies will be collecting the taxes.

For other items at the meeting see May 28 meeting notes.
