MANUAL RELEASES
Updates.
Publication dates and material changes. The date attached to an individual figure remains its reporting period.
2026-11-07
Initial resident dashboard
Borough, school, tax, property, and utility financial histories; adopted budget reviews; certified property-tax calculations; and optional financial scenarios.
Expanded school extraction preserves 17 years of reported staffing and overlapping report vintages. All 80 source-column staffing totals reconcile. Detailed school expenditure lines retain original, final, and actual columns.
The 2026-27 school budget recording now has timestamped transcript and slide records. Visually checked financial slides are retained separately from machine transcription. Its 2017-18 state-aid baseline uses the original Governor budget message; the historical chart uses the revised allocation. Both source stages are preserved. Presentation verification and source-stage details.
Chart axes now identify their units and reporting years. The 2022 child-care reporting annotation applies to support/other staff and total staff; instructional FTE remains continuous because child care is outside instruction in the source schedule.
The November 7 data refresh adds primary federal school enrollment and staffing history, school-finance records reaching 1992, county audited operations and tax-allocation detail, printed borough payroll subtotals, 2009 borough and utility expenditure schedules, and a newer partial property-sales snapshot. Federal and district measures retain their different definitions, and partial sales records remain separate from complete annual histories.
Source limitations and accounting distinctions remain documented in Methods, Sources, and the supporting downloads.
Budget archive and clearer downloads
The Budget archive lists every borough, school and utility review, with links between the archive and individual years. Downloads now have descriptive titles and coverage labels that distinguish financial periods, report editions, forecasts and partial snapshots. The underlying financial values, source cutoff and complete download files are unchanged.
Clearer site policies
Publisher independence is now explained on About PPRGC. The footer links to a dedicated on-site License & attribution page alongside Privacy and Terms. The former Legal address redirects to About.
Privacy notice
The Privacy policy now explains Google Analytics and Cloudflare Web Analytics for page visits and performance, including the Google Analytics cookies and how to opt out. Calculator entries and scenario values stay in your browser.
Source correction before publication
The 2022 certified general tax rate is 2.141 per $100. Visual inspection of the original scanned schedule corrects an earlier OCR reading of 2.144. The printed components and separate official summary agree with 2.141. The calculator and published source tables use the corrected rate.
