WATCH: Sayville 2020-21 School Budget Live Vote

SAYVILLE, NY — Tuesday marks the last day that residents can vote whether or not to approve the district's proposed 2020-2021 school budget, as well as elect the school board and library trustees.

All registered voters who live in the district's boundaries received an absentee ballot in the mail with a postage-paid return envelope, the district said. To be counted, school budget ballots can be accepted by hand delivery through 5 p.m. on June 9 and received by mail through June 16 by the school district.

The Sayville School District's proposed spending plan for the 2020-21 school year is $96,208,308. That's a 1.97 percent increase from the current budget. To fund the increase, the district proposes a tax levy of $61,106,560 up 2.01 percent from the current year's.

Typically, the Board of Education adopts the budget and it is presented to the community about a month before the annual vote. Gov. Andrew Cuomo changed the voting process this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.

When the polls close at 5 p.m., the Sayville School District will be live streaming from the Old Junior High the Budget Vote tally on Sayville School District's Facebook page. Click here for the link.
