Palmesano: The Gov Is Allowing State Aid For H-Port

Corning Republican Assemblyman Phil Palmesano says, the governor is backing off her plan to cut state aid to schools like Hammondsport.  Palmesano maintains that Hammondsport was going to be cut more than most schools.  "Hammondsport, I think they were looking at a 30 percent cut," Palmesano said.  "The fact that we were able to get that back in the budget was a positive thing, but we're going to have more work to do, because we know this governor is going to try to revisit this, next year," Palmesano stated this morning.   Hammondsport Central officials will discuss the budget more tomorrow night at 6:00 in the high school library.
