Hurley School Board told tax levy increase lies ahead

HURLEY — The Hurley School Board will likely look at a possible $200,000 tax levy increase in the fall, according to district administrator Chris Patritto.

Patritto told school board members Monday that as it stands now, the district would lose about $100,000 in state aid for the 2016-’17 school year.
