school budget votes

Three school districts in the Southern Tier successfully passed new school budgets on Tuesday.The Newfield, Ithaca, and Corning Painted-Post school districts all brought forward updated versions of the budget for a revote after their original proposals failed to pass in May. These revamped proposals cut spending and lowered proposed tax levies.

The Corning-Painted Post school board met last month to propose a new budget for a revote on June 18.

The capital project plan was one of three propositions on the Ithaca ballot. All three passed with over 80% of the vote.
