As we approach budget season, here’s a few things that I’m thinking about:
Full Day Kindergarten – Several interesting projects have been proposed. I like the idea of putting multiple solutions to the same problem on the ballot and choosing one. I’m hopeful that we can get to a solution that fits the needs of the program while fitting into the town’s budget.
Lions Hall – I’m interested in seeing what the committee is going to present. I’m skeptical about a phased solution that would require support in multiple budget cycles; I think we need a clear path to a timely end state for the building. I would like to see multiple options go to the ballot, similar to Kindergarten.
Traffic/Roadway Safety Trust Fund – I like the idea. I hope the trust fund includes traffic studies so we can make informed decisions, in addition to roadway changes. I also want to hear about who will manage the trust fund as well as how involved the Traffic Safety Committee and Town Engineering staff will be in decision making.
What are some things that you are thinking about for budget season?
