The village of East Williston ended its budget season by passing a financial plan with a 7.934% tax levy increase.
East Williston Mayor Bonnie Parente has said the village’s $2,934,633 budget requires a higher than usual tax levy increase due to a need to recalibrate the village’s books after they had not been kept as neatly as they needed to be by the village’s previous treasurer. These costs include the hiring of a new, full-time treasurer.
