What questions will NY voters answer on November ballots?
New York voters will decide on two proposed tweaks to the state constitution in November, each dealing with the amount of debt that local governments and school districts can accrue.
One proposal would remove a relic from the 1950s that set lower borrowing limits for small-city school districts than for all other school systems. Approval by voters would end that disparity and give 57 districts more spending leeway for construction projects.
The other referendum would extend for 10 years a key exception to the debt limits for counties and municipalities. If approved, their limits would continue to exclude bond debt taken on for costly sewer projects.
