Here's What Gets Discussed on Friday

See my earlier post for details on how to attend the Budget Committee and Selectboard hearings this Friday, 6:00 and 6:30pm. The purpose is to discuss this warrant article:

To see if the town will vote (1) to raise and appropriate $1,187,000 for the purpose of restoring, repairing, and improving roads which suffered significant damages during the flash flood of July 2019, (2) to authorize the issuance of not more than $1,187,000 of bonds or notes in accordance with the provisions of the Municipal Finance Act (RSA 33) and to authorize town officials to issue and negotiate such bonds or notes and to determine the rate of interest thereon, and (3) to authorize town officials to apply for, accept and expend FEMA grant monies of up to $890,250 in partial reimbursement of the Town’s aforesaid road restoration, repair and improvement expenses.

2/3 ballot vote required.

Recommended by the Select Board 3-0.

Recommended by the Budget Committee 3-0.

Here’s the FAQ I wrote a month or so ago, explaining an earlier, slightly different version of the warrant article. And here’s info on how to attend the Budget Committee and Selectboard meetings.
