Town Warrant Article 12- Neutral

'Grok - neutral 

I will probably be voting no; I understand the longer term ramifications, but I'm not convinced that the amount of the monies needed will spike the tax rate.

Article 12:  To see if the Town will vote to establish a Capital Reserve Fund under the provisions of RSA 35:1-c for the purpose of maintaining the Town’s Recreation Facilities and to raise and appropriate the sum of twenty two thousand dollars ($22,000) to be placed in this fund and to name the Board of Selectmen as agents to expend.  (Recommended by the Board of Selectmen, Recommended by the Budget Committee).

Principle: Capital Reserve Funds, IMHO, should be for larger amounts.

Recommendation: your call.
