State Senator Kenneth P. LaValle, R-Port Jefferson, announced Tuesday that Riverhead area libraries and schools have been awarded additional state aid — on top of the typical state aid formula.
LaValle said the cash will provide tax rate stabilization and relief for taxpayers. The aid to the Riverhead Free Library and the Shoreham-North Shore Public Library will amount to $2,200 each, while the Baiting Hollow Free Library will receive $500.
The Riverhead School District will receive $50,600 and the Little Flower Union Free School Distric in Wading River will receive $25,000.
