DCMO BOCES budget passed
NORTH NORWICH – On Monday, each of the 16 component schools in the Delaware-Chenango-Madison-Otsego BOCES district cast their vote on the administrative component of the cooperative education organization’s 2011-12 budget.
The proposed spending plan passed by a vote of 14 to 2. The two dissenting votes were cast by Hancock and Unadilla Valley.
According to UV Board of Education President William Lyons, his board voted no because they felt BOCES wasn’t “diligent enough” in reducing spending.
“Every district in the area is struggling,” he said, yet the BOCES board gave District Superintendent Bill Tammaro a 4.25 percent raise.
“Our superintendent hasn’t had a raise in three years. We’re cutting jobs and asking for concessions from teachers,” Lyons said.
The administrative budget, which totaled $2.14 million, represents 5.047 percent of the total proposed 2010-11 budget estimated at $42,422,809. It is the only portion component districts vote on directly.
Districts also voted to determine who would fill two vacancies on the DCMO BOCES board of education. Incumbents Linda Zaczek and Richard Dillon received 13 and 11 votes respectively to retain their seats on the board. Lyons, who challenged the two for a seat, received 7 votes.
