June 17, 2025Cazenovia CSD Revised Budget Passes
Cazenovia Central School District voters approved its revised proposed budget of $39,617,418 for the 2025-26 school year on June 17. The proposal carried a 3.14% tax levy increase, which is at the district’s calculated tax levy limit, so it required a simple majority vote to pass, which it did, 1670 to 533, passing with 75.81% yes votes.
"We are immensely grateful for the overwhelming support shown at the polls, especially after the challenges of the initial vote." Superintendent Chris DiFulvio said. “This renewed vote of confidence allows us to eagerly look forward and focus on the students and what we can put in place for the coming year.”
The approved budget includes a $100,000 Capital Outlay Project that includes facility improvements, such as gym floor refinishing or door hardening for security purposes. The budget also allows for necessary equipment purchases, student supplies, new buses, and the continuation of office equipment rentals.
“We appreciate everyone who took the time to vote and recognize that this outcome reflects the community's commitment to its schools and its students' futures,” DiFulvio said. “We look forward to continuing our mission of providing an exceptional educational experience for all.”
