Key Actions & Decisions

• ◆ Albion’s school board approved a 2026 tax warrant authorizing collection of $8,449,039 for schools and $687,760 for the library at its August 3 meeting, according to the district’s official board summary.
• ◆ The warrant’s town-by-town table assigns $3,294,160.03 of the school levy and $268,147.83 of the library levy to Albion. Gaines accounts for $1,877,855.10 and $152,859.23, respectively. The warrant also lists portions in Barre, Carlton, Kendall, Murray and Ridgeway in Orleans County and Elba in Genesee County.
• ◆ Eight board members voted yes; Christopher Kinter was recorded absent. The table reports total assessed value of $894,340,520 across the listed areas. These figures establish the collection authorization, not an individual homeowner’s bill or a year-over-year tax increase. The summary alone does not supply a prior-year comparison or a household’s exemptions.
