APPROPRIATION COMMITTEE REPORT TO THE MARCH 2014 STM <br />Preface <br />This report for the March 2014 Special Town Meeting has been published in advance of the Committee’s <br />regular report to the Annual Town Meeting. This fulfills the Committee’s goal of distributing our reports <br />at least one week before the articles covered are to be taken up at Town Meeting. <br />This report is published and distributed to the members of Town Meeting as a printed document and as an <br />electronic document via the Town website. During Town Meeting the Committee will also provide updat- <br />ed recommendations on appropriations, proposed amendments, and matters for which the Committee’s <br />formal position was not available at the time of publication. <br />The discussion for each article presents the prevailing view of the Committee, as well as any other con- <br />siderations or cautions that we feel Town Meeting should be informed of. If one or more Committee <br />members are strongly opposed to the majority position, we summarize the opposing perspective. Each <br />Article discussion concludes with the most recent vote of the Committee prior to publication. The vote is <br />summarized by the number of members in favor, followed by the number of members opposed, and lastly <br />(when applicable) the number of members abstaining, e.g. “(6-2-1)” indicates six members in favor, two <br />opposed, and one abstaining. It is not always possible to collect a complete vote for every article from <br />nine voting members. In such instances, the total number of votes and abstentions published will be less <br />than nine. For convenience, Committee votes are also summarized on the preceding pages. <br />Acknowledgements <br />The content of this report, except where otherwise noted, was researched, written and edited by members <br />of the Committee with support from Town staff. Our Committee has the pleasure and the privilege of <br />working with Town Manager, Carl Valente; Assistant Town Manager for Finance, Rob Addelson; our <br />Budget Officer, Theo Kalivas; the Capital Expenditures Committee; the Community Preservation Com- <br />mittee; the School Committee; the Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Paul Ash; the Assistant Superintendent <br />for Finance and Operations, Mary Ellen Dunn; and the Board of Selectmen. We thank the municipal and <br />school staff, Town officials, boards and volunteers who have contributed time and expertise to help us <br />prepare this report. <br />1 <br /> <br />
