A-1Mayor’s Message: Village Budget Report
Dear everyone,
This past Tuesday the Board of Trustees approved the budget for our next fiscal year, which runs from June 1, 2022 through May 31,
2023. This budget lowers the Village property tax rate to $5.99 for every thousand dollars in assessed value, from $6.03 last year (see
HERE for the current tax warrant and HERE for the most recent adopted Village budgets). Below is a detailed explanation of the
budget highlights and process—it’s long so be forewarned!
Apportionment of Taxes
As we explained in the budget meeting, Village taxes account for approximately 18.8% of your total property taxes. The rest of your
property taxes are apportioned as follows: the school receives 67.8%, the County receives 11.8% and the Town receives 1.4%. Each of
these entities determines its budget independently with its own unique tax rate. The school budget is approved by a community vote
later this spring. If you want to review past property tax rates by taxing entity and year click HERE, and to view the calculation of
how the tax liability was apportioned in 2021 across the taxing entities, click HERE (note that the percentages might change slightly
this year depending on what each taxing entity decides).
Operational Budget Highlights
Our 2022 to 2023 adopted General Fund Operational Budget totals $17,645,254. For the most part the budget remained flat, with the
main increases in the areas of personnel costs, including health insurance, debt service and energy costs.
• Personnel Costs. The budget reflects some changes in personnel (both retirements and new hires), increases in minimum wage
as well as step increases, which are mandated in the Union Contracts. We continue to negotiate the union contracts and have
created a new assigned fund to cover retroactive pay as well as retirement payouts. This fund is not part of the budget per se
(see section on Fund Balance below) but building a reserve to address personnel related expenses is a prudent practice and
protects the community from cost surges.
• Health Insurance. Health insurance premiums climbed by $623,158 over last year due to an increase in the premium,
effective January 1, 2022 of 13% and an estimated anticipated increase in premium next year of 6% as well as some new hires,
that replace retirees who are also entitled to continued health care coverage. To put that in terms that are more graspable to the
average person, family coverage for each employee went from $29,000 to $34,000 a year, and from $12,900 to $14,400 a year
for single employees. Living through two years of COVID-19 underscores the importance of health care for each of ouremployees (as well as our residents), while at the same time the cost increases we are witnessing—which are climbing
dramatically faster than inflation—illustrate exactly why this issue is so fraught in the national conversation. Our employees
are on a State plan and we intend to take this up with elected officials further up the political chain.
• Debt Service. We saw a significant increase in borrowing costs annually of $302,137 or a 23% increase. This is because in
September 2021,we decided to take advantage of historically low interest rates for a range of needed capital expenses. The
Village funded $4,821,063 of projects both outstanding (from prior Bond Anticipation Notes “BANs”) and new with the
issuance of $4,275,000 in bonds and the premium offered at sale of $546,063, resulting in a true interest cost of 1.19% on a 13
year Bond issue. BANs are temporary borrowings that must be converted into serial bonds within 5 years of issuance. When a
bond is issued a municipality needs to pay both principal and interest on the money borrowed. The Village decided it made
sense to invest in infrastructure improvements while rates were low (note that since issuance interests rates have more than
doubled and are expected to continue to rise so our timing was good). We are using the bond money to make needed
improvements to our facilities (including renovations to Village Hall, the Library and the Hook & Ladder Building), make
roadway improvements (including constructions or reconstruction of sidewalks, paving and catch basins), and to purchase
heavy-duty vehicles for the DPW, as well as two all-electric vehicles (a pick-up truck for the DPW and a new Police Chief’s
vehicle). We expect a significant drop in debt service starting in the 2025-2026 fiscal year, when a prior bond of the Village is
paid off.
• Energy. The other area where we project significant cost increases is for fuel and energy. As part of our sustainability agenda,
over the past few years we have made efforts to reduce emissions by investing in electric vehicles and by incorporating energy
efficiency measures in our building renovations, but based on global trends we expect prices to increase dramatically this year
and have budgeted accordingly. We hope to off set some of these costs by enrolling our municipal meters in both community
solar and GridRewards™.
In terms of General Fund revenues, beyond property taxes which are addressed below, the budget projects what the Village expects to
receive from State, County, and locally generated sources of funds. Certain revenue streams have been restored to at or near pre-
pandemic levels. Mortgage tax revenues are anticipated to remain robust, Building Department revenues are anticipated to remain
steady at present levels, and sales tax revenues are projected to grow 15.8% to $1,900,000 fueled by post-Covid spending and,
increased costs in various commodities.
The operational budget does not include grant funding which the Village has aggressively pursued for a range of special projects
aimed at enhancing the quality of life in the Village (for example improving parks, installing new sidewalks in the downtown and
future planning efforts).Budget Process
For those of you curious about how the budget gets crafted this next section hopefully explains the process.
• Creating the Village Budget. The Village Manager creates her budget between November and March based on
recommendations from each department head, and an analysis of financial data from the current and prior fiscal years. Usually,
she presents the budget to the Board in March, along with several years of actual expenses for each spending category. During
work sessions (this year there were four), the Board meets with each department head to review the proposed budget,
comparing the proposed spending against historical actual expenses, and working with the Village Manager to make
adjustments. The Board also reviews anticipated sources of revenue. In our decision-making process we take into consideration
goals and principles laid out in our key policy documents (notably our Comprehensive Plan but also our many sustainability
related plans and polices). Based on this review the Board asks for adjustments and the Village Manager finalizes the budget
accordingly.
• Property Assessment. The single largest source of revenue for the Village is property taxes, which is based on the assessed
values of residents’ homes. The Assessor of the Town of Greenburgh creates the assessment roll for each Village, which is
comprised of a listing of every property and the Assessor’s estimate of its current value. In 2016, the Town of Greenburgh
initiated a reassessment project whose goal was to ensure that the assessment roll of the Town and its Villages more closely
reflected the actual value of the property. It was the first reassessment of property values in the Town in 60 years. Changes in
the assessment roll reflect new building, increases in home values due to improvements, and overall market conditions that
affect house values. The total assessed value for all taxable property in Hastings-on-Hudson was $2,014,001,867 in 2021 (see
HERE pg. 1,837) which is up 4.4% from $1,928,128,518 in 2020 (see HERE pg. 1,835). Most increases in assessments are
based on market trends in individual neighborhoods, and vary from neighborhood to neighborhood.
• Tax Levy. The levy is the part of the overall budget that is paid for by property taxes, and it covers all expenses that are not
covered by other sources of revenue. For the 2022-2023 fiscal year, the tax levy will be $12,074,798.78 (see HERE for the new
tax warrant which documents the levy). The tax levy is compliant with New York State law that establishes the 2% maximum
tax levy that may be budgeted without the need to seek an override. This year the levy increase is 3.7%, which while it might
seem to exceed the maximum allowable levy, is in fact compliant as it includes the unused tax levy capacity carried forward
from the 2021-2022 fiscal year levy and the growth in property assessments. We have stayed under the 2% cap every year
since it was introduced.
• Tax Rate. The tax rate is calculated by dividing the levy ($12,074,798.78) by the total assessed value ($2,014,001,867) and
then multiplying by 1,000 to come up with a tax rate per thousand dollars of assessed value. For this coming fiscal year, which
begins on June 1st, 2022, the tax rate will be $5.99 per $1,000 of assessed value (down from $6.03 last year). This means thatif the median value of a home in the Village is about $650,000, the homeowner will owe $3,893 in Village taxes
($650,000*0.00599). The owner will be paying more (or less) than last year depending on what the assessed value of the home
is today compared to last year. If, for example the home went up in value the owner will pay more (e.g. if the value of a home
went from $650K to $700K it will result in an annual tax of $4,193 or an increase of $300) but if the home went down in value
the owner will pay less.
Fund Balances
Fund Balances are reserves that the Village can use if necessary - they can be restricted, assigned or unassigned. Last year, in order to
improve our Moody’s outlook, we made a decision to reallocate certain funds as Moody’s does not count restricted funds or funds
held in trust in its assessment of a municipality. We created five new Assigned Fund Balances: capital, parks, personnel, film fees and
River Street Parking. These will be funds that we can use for any of the named purposes. We also augmented our Unassigned Fund
Balance (also colloquially known as the “rainy day fund”) due to a significant budget surplus. The combination of these reallocations,
together with the budget surplus, resulted in a Moody’s upgrade from Aa3 to Aa2 for the Village (see HERE). In November of last
year, our outside independent auditor affirmed the Unassigned Fund Balance as of May 31, 2021 at $3,888,293, which equals 22% of
the total General Fund expenditures presented in this budget (see HERE for our latest audit pg. 19). This is considerably more than the
minimum 10% required in our Fund Balance Policy (see HERE). Note that this year’s budget recommends a budgetary transfer from
the Unassigned Fund Balance to the Operational Budget of $302,000. This represents the principal and interest on the 2021 bonding
(see Debt Service above). We expect to use fund balance for this purpose again in two subsequent budgets to offset this increase in
appropriations until a prior bond is fully paid in the 2024 to 2025 fiscal year.
Over the past few years we have done our very best to keep the tax rate low, in fact our tax rate has consistently been the lowest in the
Rivertowns (click HERE to compare). The Board of Trustees and Village Management are acutely aware of the financial burden
these past two years of the pandemic have placed on our residents and we have done what we could to ease that burden. While many
think of our community as affluent, you might be surprised at how many families struggle to make ends meet. For those interested in
local housing affordability issues see: Westchester County Housing Needs Assessment (2019) and the appendices with municipal
profiles (we are at pg. 257), as well as a presentation on the state of housing in Hastings-on-Hudson provided by Norma Drummond,
Westchester County Commissioner of Planning, on October 6, 2020 (see HERE for the presentation and HERE for the video – item
VII).The budget period is intense and our heartfelt thanks goes to our Village Manager, Treasurer, Deputy Treasurer and Village Clerk for the time and effort they have put into crafting this budget, and to our Department Heads and employees for being fiscally responsible with tax payer funds. Please do reach out if you have questions. Sincerely, Nicola Armacost Mayor mayor@hastingsgov.org

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Board of Trustees is the legislative body of the Village. The Board establishes policy, enacts laws, approves contracts, adopts
the Village budget, and engages in other activities as required by State or local law. The Board is composed of a Mayor and four
Trustees elected at large for two‐year staggered terms.
Personal services represent the Trustees’ salaries at $2400/ year.
Contractual expenses within this program include travel and other miscellaneous expenses.
Recently enacted state law requires the members of the Planning Board and the Zoning Board of Appeals to participate in
minimum of four hours per year of training and continuing education.
The Board of Trustees has self‐imposed a similar requirement upon newly‐elected members of the Board of Trustees. The budget
offers funding to permit that opportunity.
