Yonkers Insider: District 7 Virtual Hearing on the Proposed 2021 Budget, Tuesday December 1 at 7:30 P.M.

 

Dear Neighbors,

As in previous years, I will again be holding a special hearing for District 7 residents to weigh in and share their thoughts on the Proposed 2021 Westchester County Budget, Tuesday, December 1, at 7:30 PM. This year, we will hold a hearing virtually by Webex. In short, County Executive Latimer’s proposed budget calls for:

• 2% increase for nonprofits,
• $5 million for economic development programs,
• $5 million for housing assistance programs and
• $2 million for food insecurity.
• $1 million savings on the tax levy for the second year in a row
• No cuts to services
