Ossining Town Hall Discusses Middle School Land Sale and Explains School Tax Bill: TONIGHT

From the Ossining Schools District – In a move that could benefit both the schools and larger community, the 
Ossining Union Free School District is exploring a unique opportunity to partner with the Town of Ossining in a land sale. Town officials approached the district with a request to purchase five acres of a 36-acre parcel behind Anne M. Dorner Middle School to be used to expand the Dale 
Cemetery. 

At this point, school officials are seeking community input on the potential sale, which would have to be approved by voters. Revenue generated from such a transaction could be used to help maintain educational programs, while the purchase would enable the Town of Ossining to 
provide burial plots to the Chinese community and maintain Dale Cemetery for several years.

There will be a Town Hall meeting to discuss the AMD Land Sale on October 1st the Ossining Public Library. The Ossining Board of Education would need to make a decision to sell the land by November 25th
Ossining School District residents are encouraged to attend these meetings for additional information.

Please Join us at the October 1st Ossining Town Hall Meeting at the Ossining Public Library at 7:30 p.m. to learn more about the AMD Land Sale and for an important discussion focusing on Understanding Your School Tax Bill. The Understanding Your School Tax Bill presentation is a collaborative presentation with the Town and the School District to discuss the OUFSD School 
Tax Bill. The goal of the program is to present information and answer questions about your 
tax bill. Alita Zuber, Assistant Superintendent for Ossining Schools and Fernando Gonzalez, 
Ossining Town Assessor will be presenting on this very important topic. We hope that you will join us as we attempt to provide transparency and clarity to this process.
