The board rejected the bond proposal. We saved the village from this debt. Keep watching the budget to ensure it stays that way.

We believe that for the Village to embark on this project would be a fiscally irresponsible risk to all Scarsdale taxpayers. Doubling the Village's debt load for a project that should be funded entirely with private funds puts the entire Scarsdale taxpayer-base at risk for the benefit of a small minority of the Village's residents.
It is time to focus on investing in our schools, maintaining our basic services and to stop looking to mortgage the future of our community's financial health for a $24 million multi-purpose luxury facility. It is time to say NO to the SCC.

The momentum is undeniable now. Scarsdale residents are clearly demanding a more responsible fiscal path.

Keep private money private. Do not put this on the taxpayers back.
My property taxes are insane as it is. HARD NO.
Enough with the vanity projects. Our taxes are already sky high and I dont want to be paying for some luxury gym I will never even set foot in.
Total waste of funds. Fix the roads and focus on the schools instead of this nonsense.
This is just too much money. Why are we even considering doubling the debt for this?? Get your priorities straight.

So tired of the village board thinking they can just spend our money like it grows on trees. Stop the bond.
