Mr. Politi noted that the Board had talked about basing the time- table on a date of January 15 for finalization of the budget, movin' all dates back two weeks accordingly and signing the warrant and j coming to decision on the budget on February 15. Mrs. Rawls agreed agreed that the 2 -week move could be workabl' if information would be provided to TMMA in sufficient time for pre parat ion of the Warrant Information Report. She felt that if the Warrant is mailed three weeks in advance of the first business ses 4on of Town Meeting, and if it would be released to TMMA as soon as it is ready for the printer, it would probably work out satisfactorily It was noted that the Appropriation Committee is favorable to the January 15 date. The Capital Expenditures Committee has not been contacted for its view on the matter. � The Chairman felt that the compromise appeared to be a viable one and requested that the Town Manager redraft the schedule based on the January 15 date. Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was voted that the budget will be finalized by January 15, and all subsequent dates revised accordingly. Regarding formation of the Lexington 2,000 Committee, the Town Manager noted that the Selectmen have identified need for such a committee in terms of its Goal Setting process. V Omw
