Pittsford School District voters approved a budget for the upcoming school year on Tuesday, by a more than two to one margin. The vote was 3,107 yes and 1,234 no.
A second vote was necessary after Pittsford rejected a spending plan in May. At that time, the budget failed to secure the 60 percent super-majority of votes necessary because district officials wanted to exceed the state tax cap.
The new budget does not include money for funding full-day kindergarten. Pittsford is one just a few school districts in the state without full-day kindergarten.
The $130 million dollar budget has an estimated increase in the tax levy of 3.6 percent. The estimated tax rate increase is 1.8 percent.
