  The Cayuga County Legislature cut nearly $500,000 from the proposed 2025 budget during a special meeting Tuesday.

The Cayuga County Legislature has approved a $202.5 million budget for 2025, which includes a significant $500,000 reduction in funding for the maintenance of Emerson Park. This decision was part of broader budget adjustments aimed at managing county finances more stringently. The budget also features a slight increase in property taxes by 1.99%, setting the tax rate at $8.45 per $1,000 of assessed value. Despite the cuts, the county plans to continue supporting essential services and infrastructure, with specific allocations for road repairs, public safety, and economic development initiatives. The reduction in park funding has sparked concerns among local residents and officials about the future upkeep and development of Emerson Park, a popular recreational area in the county.
