TROY – Lansingburgh Central School District voters will consider a proposal to spend $1.15 million to make repairs and improvements at three district schools when they go to the polls Jan. 15.

“We are proposing additional vital improvements to our school buildings using the remaining funds from the 2015 Turnpike Elementary School Capital Project,” the district said in announcing the vote.

The district wants to spend $1.16 million to create a secure entry to Rensselaer Park Elementary, which mirrors the work performed at Turnpike Elementary School, and to repair and rebuild roofs at Knickerbocker Middle School and Lansingburgh High School.

There would be no tax burden for district property owners if the bond issue is approved. The project will be eligible for 90 percent state building aid with the rest covered by the savings from the Turnpike Elementary School project coming in under budget. District voters must decide whether to proceed with the new project as it was not included in the original building program.

The district is holding the vote so that if the project is approved work can be done during the summer of 2019.

Voting will be held from noon to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 15 at the district’s two polling places.

Residents in District 1, which includes the area north of 101st Street to the end of Pleasantdale as well as Northern Drive and Corliss Park residence, vote at Lansingburgh High School gymnasium foyer, 320 Seventh Ave.

Residents in District 2, which includes Miami Beach Estates, Highpointe, Stoneledge, all of Brunswick 7 and all of Speigletown, vote at Speigletown Fire House, Route 49, just north of the town line in Schaghticoke.
