Donald Noyes, Chairman had done some further checking as to the
estimated tax rate of 39. 10 for year 1964, and find there is a net shortage
nof $414,00. which means the Tax rate will be up approximately $2.45 over last
,..-years' rate.
A general discussion was had on budgets in general and where we
could reduce our operating figure.
Consideration was given on the pollibility of reducing the following:
Library 10,000.00
Public Works, Expenses40,000.00
Interest 10,000.00
Reserve fund 10,000.00
Recreation 20,000.00
We then went down to the Selectmen' s meeting to inform them as to
the tax rate, instead of $39. 10 as estimated to 4P41.55 or a possible increase
of $2.45.
There was a general discussion and the Selectmen said possibly the
following could be done.
Route 2 - Sewer delayed this year 50,000. ,
Water Ccnduit 65,000.
From Excess & Dificiency 100,000.
The net result would be an increase in the tax rate of $1.50 for
year 1964. The new fire ennine, .Conservation budget are out for this year,
and a $90,000. cut ii. budget.
