Making changes when the final numbers are not yet known.

Since a final FY2020 state budget has yet to be approved, local officials need to be aware that the July local aid distributions will be based on the amounts appearing on the cherry sheet proposals under the Governor's budget proposal.  Therefore, the Chapter 70, Charter Tuition Reimbursements and State-owned Land receipt programs will be impacted.  On the assessment side, the charter tuition assessment will be impacted.

To determine an estimate of the amount to be paid in July, you can review the cherry sheet proposals by clicking here.  Use the estimate appearing under the heading “FY2020 Governor's Proposal” (see example below).

Staff from the Data Analytics and Resources Bureau are available to answer any questions you may have regarding the upcoming July distribution. Please contact them at (617) 626-2384 or databank@dor.state.ma.us.
