The Mayor has sent his budget to the City Council and it will be the topic of discussion at the next city council meeting. There is a raise in taxes again with no increase to schools. This means that the schools will need to find $3.8 Million in cuts. Which of your child's programs do you want cut? Any of them? All of them? Contact your city council person and attend the city council budget hearings. Let them hear your voice.

Does Warwick need a tax increase to provide a small increase in funding to the schools? No, the city has raised taxes every year for 24 years and has additional revenue amounting to a yearly increase of $30 Million annually over the last 4 years. They have enough money, it just isn't going into education. It is paying for benefits and pensions of city employees.

Here is a link to the city council emails and phone numbers. Contact your council person today.
