Vote Today on S. Huntington Library Budget

Balloting open from 3 to 9 p.m.

Voters will cast ballots Tuesday on the South Huntington Public Library budget.

Balloting is from 3 to 9 p.m. at the library.

The $5,750,401 budget includes a tax increase of 1.7 percent, or $12.64 on a property assessed at $3,300. That means an average library tax bill of $425.04 and is an increase from this year's budget of $5,653,503.

Kids are also invited to have fun the day of the budget vote with their own election. This is the 50th anniversary of the Caldecott Medal-winning classic, Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak.
