Yonkers Insider: City of Yonkers Budget: Statement from Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano.

 

Dear Friend, 

The City of Yonkers 2021-2022 Budget was adopted today with a 7-0 vote by the Yonkers City Council.

The Adopted Budget contains no increase in property taxes and contains no reductions in City services or positions.

The Adopted Budget also increases the School District’s budget, making it the largest local share of any big city to a district outside of New York City.

Over 53% of the Adopted Budget is devoted to the Yonkers Public Schools, the highest percentage contribution made during my administration.

By working together with our City Council, we are maintaining quality services for our residents, relieving our taxpayers, and making vital investments in education so we can keep moving Yonkers forward.

MIKE SPANO

Mayor
