Riverdale BOE Special Meeting $18mil Referendum Riverdale School 10/12/22
Part 1 https://rumble.com/v1nqqn0-riverdale-nj-school-referendum-101222.html

BOE $18mil Referendum Riverdale NJ School 10/12/22 - A lot of time and effort went into this project with a detailed slideshow presentation. A Riverdale District Wide Facilities Audit was completed in 2016 finding a need for $4.5 mil in capital improvements. This project has an Estimated $18 mil budget, with $3.5 mil from debt service aid, leaving $15 mil to be funded in Riverdale taxes. Estimate increase is $385/family based on an assessed home of $334k, so if your home is assessed at 500k, you can estimate an increase in taxes of about $576. Note - In addition, we all received notices that the town will reassess our real estate taxes annually. Expected project completion is 2027. A 13 1/2% cushion was included for price gouging/overages/unforeseen expenditures. The dropoff entrance will be on Newark Pompton Turnpike between the crossing guard and the parking lot. It is unclear what the fee for Solutions will be for handling the project. The interest rate on the loan is estimated at 4.5% with a 25 yr term. The plan was submitted to the DOE in May 2022 and is awaiting DOE approval, which is expected in December.
