REPORT TO OCTOBER 20 SPECIAL TowN MEETING
RECOMMENDATIONS SUMMARY
ARTICLE 2: REMODELINGIRECONSIRUCTION OF TOWN SCHOOLS
By unanimous vote, the Appropriation Committee recommends that Town Meeting:
• Appropriate 70.9 million to carry out Phase 1 of the School Building Project as voted by the School Committee
on October 7, 1997.
• Authorize borrowing to finance the $70.9 million Phase 1 project cost.
Please refer to the detailed report beginning on page 4.
ARTICLE 3: LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION
By unanimous vote, the Appropriation Committee recommends that Town Meeting:
• Appropriate an additional$1,050,000 to construct, reconstruct, repair, and equip Cary Memorial Library.
This additional appropriation will allow the Library to add 5,000 sq. ft of badly needed future expansion space and to
renovate Cary Hall for use as an interim library during construction. When added to the$7,850,000 1996 Town Meeting
appropriation, the two appropriations will cover the$8.9 million total project cost. The Town's$2.4 million share of
project costs will not increase; the Library Trustees have voted to increase their support. Outside sources will fund over
70% of the Library Project.
Town Borrowing $2.4 million
State Grant 2.8 million
Trustees' Funds 3.7 million
Library Project Total $8.9 million

RECOMMENDATIONS SUMMARY
(Continued)
CAPITAL PROGRAM FINANcING RECOMMENDATIONS
By unanimous vote, the Appropriation Committee recommends that the Board of Selectmen:
■ Seek voter approval this fall of an $80 million debt exclusion override to finance Phase 1 of the School Project
and debt authorized by previous Town Meetings, but not yet issued:
SCHOOL PROJECT': PHASE 1 '} s r a:
$70,920,000
AU'mORIZED Bur UNISSUED DEBT:
School Renovations, Design 6,265,000
Library Repair, Construction 2,666,666
Land Acquisition 150.000
DEBT EXCLUSION TOTAL $80,001,666
See Exhibit A for details of the$9,081,666 in bonding authorized by previous Town Meetings.
FY 1999 BUDGET IMPACT OF AUTHORIZED BUT UNISSUED DEBT �•;;
• An operating override will be required in the spring of 1998 if the Town's voters do not approve a debt exclusion
for the debt service related to the $9.1 million of unissued debt.
Debt service for the$9.1 million authorized but unissued debt in FY 1999 is estimated to be$1.1 million. If this debt
service is paid from the general tax levy, then the Appropriation Committee forecasts an FY 1999 budget deficit of$1.7
million. (See Exhibit D.)
