In a recent government meeting, officials approved a series of personnel and general resolutions, including the issuance of up to $35 million in tax anticipation notes for the New Rochelle City School District. The resolutions, numbered 25 95 through 25 112, were passed with unanimous support, reflecting a collaborative effort among council members.
The meeting began with the approval of the consent agenda for personnel resolutions, followed by a motion to adopt general resolutions 25 100 through 25 110. Both motions were met with affirmative votes, indicating strong consensus among the members.
A significant item on the agenda was resolution number 20 511, which authorizes the issuance of tax anticipation notes in anticipation of tax receipts for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. This resolution was passed following a roll call vote, with all members in favor.
Additionally, resolution number 20 512, which accepted the findings of a hearing officer, was also approved without opposition.
Looking ahead, the council announced a special meeting scheduled for August 27, where members will convene to vote on an undisclosed item in executive session, without public comment. The first meeting of the school year is set for September 5.
The meeting concluded on a somber note as members paid tribute to Sam Corleone Spady, a beloved figure in the New Rochelle community who recently passed away. Spady, a retired member of the New Rochelle public school district, was remembered for his vibrant spirit and dedication to his family and community. A moment of silence was observed in his honor, reflecting the profound impact he had on those around him.
