Need a walk-through on the Red Bank schools’ $13.35 million budget, which is up for public approval next Tuesday?
Schools Superintendent Laura Morana will host a “conversation” on the spending plan the night before at the Middle School.
The budget is to be supported by a tax $11.3 million, up 2.45 percent from the present spending plan. The owner of a home assessed at $404,980, the borough average, would see an increase of $40.50 for the year.
A budget synopsis is available at the district website. (You’ll need Power Point viewer to open it; for a free download of that application, go here.)
Only one candidate, incumbent Ben Forest, is on the ballot, though three board seats are up for voting. Forest is seeking a second three-year term.
