TOWN MEETING 1977 <br /> Chairman Furash stated that he was going to speak very <br /> briefly at the opening session of Town Meeting due to the <br /> fact that the predicted $92.60 is an outrageous figure. <br /> If the Town Meeting wants to they could remove more money <br /> from the budget. As for the school budget, I see no reason <br /> why they cannot go with a zero base budget. We cannot afford <br /> to go into next year spending any more than this year, the <br /> Chairman stated. <br />
