Local law #1 authorizes the town of Peru to exceed the tax cap

By John T Ryan

Because of my busy personal schedule, I will not be reporting the details of this meeting. After a public hearing, the board passed Local Law #1, permitting the 2025 town budget to exceed the state-imposed tax cap. Passing a law at this point is a town requirement. Supervisor Craig Randall emphasized that the board doesn’t plan to exceed the cap; however, it will only decide once it formulates the 2025 budget.
