FY2015 Local Aid Estimates based on House Ways & Means Committee Budget

The FY2015 local aid estimates based on the House Ways & Means Committee (HWM) budget proposal have been posted to the Division of Local Services website at the link below:

http://www.mass.gov/dor/local-officials/municipal-data-and-financial-management/cherry-sheets/

FY2015 Chapter 70 and Unrestricted General Government Aid appearing in the HWM budget proposal are consistent with the local aid resolution approved by the legislature in March.  The HWM budget proposal recommends increasing the funding for Charter Tuition Reimbursements by $5 million, adding an additional $2 million to the Regional School Transportation account, a $500,000 increase to State-Owned Land reimbursements and a $263,527 increase to Public Library aid.  Most other cherry sheet accounts are level funded compared to FY14 appropriations.

Please be aware that these estimates are subject to change as the state budget process progresses.  In particular, final Charter School and School Choice assessments may change significantly when updated with final enrollments and tuition rates.

If you have questions about these estimates, please call the Databank/Local Aid Section at (617) 626-2384.
