Town Warrant Article 8 - 11 - Thumb Up
'Grok Thumb Up
Like the later articles (13 - 16), they make sense. We will be spending this money in the future, so let's put some away now.
Article 8: To see if the Town will vote to raise and appropriate the sum of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) to be added to the Bridge Replacement Capital Reserve Fund. (Recommended by the Board of Selectmen, Recommended by the Budget Committee)
Article 9: To see if the Town will vote to raise and appropriate the sum of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) to be added to the Highway Equipment Capital Reserve Fund. (Recommended by the Board of Selectmen, Recommended by the Budget Committee)
Article 10: To see if the Town will vote to raise and appropriate the sum of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) to be added to the Ambulance Replacement Capital Reserve Fund. (Recommended by the Board of Selectmen, Recommended by the Budget Committee)
Article 11: 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 the maintenance of the Glendale Boat and Launch Ramp Facilities and to raise and appropriate the sum of twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000) 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: put money away so as to not spike the tax rate later when the bill comes in.
Our recommendation to our fellow citizens is to vote "Yes" on all of these articles.
