A
Today
is
monday
april
23rd,
it's
now
6
p.m:
fiscal
19
budget
workshop.
F
Well
again,
just
the
the
process
going
forward
again
tonight
is
the
final
budget
hearing
budget
review
and
then
decisions
will
be
made
tomorrow.
The
finance
director
will
make
the
necessary
changes
and
prepare
the
budget
to
be
submitted
to
the
town
clerk
for
inclusion
on
the
may
1st
agenda
for
the
review
of
the
approval
of
the
budget
resolution.
F
At
the
same
time,
she
will
be
sending
the
disclosure
information
to
the
state
to
get
a
heads
up
on
their
review
because
they
have
to
review
the
calculations
and
formulas
so
she'll
be
sending
that
in
anticipation
of
the
council
action
on
may
1st
and
again
formal
approval
will
be
solicited
from
the
missible
affairs.
Once
the
budget
resolution
is
adopted,
then
the
taxpayers
notice,
the
taxpayers
in
the
budget
summary
will
be
placed
in
the
newspaper.
F
From
the
last
meeting,
the
finance
director
sent
a
list
of
some
of
the
items
that
were
discussed
with
the
council
as
as
possible
items
to
review
for
changes
or
additions,
and
one
of
the
items
that
was
sent
also
was,
as
we
went
through
the
the
revenues,
the
motor
vehicle
phase,
the
motor
vehicle
revenues
were
increased
prior
after
the
budget
was
submitted,
based
upon
the
work
that
was
being
done
by
the
assessor,
so
that
was
a
plus.
We
are
at
the
same
time
the
rev.
F
The
assessor
has
also
been
working
on
tangible
properties
and
he's
estimating,
at
the
present
time
that
that's
going
to
be
less
than
what
was
submitted
to
the
budget.
So
it's
almost
going
to
be
a
wash
he's,
still
reviewing
that
and
again
so
we
had
a
gain
and
then
we
had
a
loss
of
revenue
for
the
those
those
classifications
and
the
property
taxes.
F
So
with
that
sort
of
where
we
stand
right
now
and
again,
I
guess
we're
off
to
the
final
review.
A
So
I
know
one
question
I
asked
you
last
week:
upstairs
was
how
much
we'd
have
to
cut
out
of
this
budget
for
a
zero
percent
tax
increase?
Can
you
give
us
that.
F
F
It's
approximately
two
million.
F
A
D
Of
town
yeah
I'd
like
to,
I
just
want
to
get
clarification
for
and
afraid
to
give
me
some
of
these
numbers
for
the
bringing
back
the
bulk
pickup
to
the
to
the
town.
Was
there
specifically
one
of
these
that
we
decided?
We
were
leaning
towards
just.
D
That
was
definitely
something
that
I
was
I'd
be
interested
in
doing.
A
Certain
positions
possibly
being
cut
so
we
can
go
through
and
talk
about
that.
I
just
want
to
point
out
one
quick
thing
and
I
don't
know
if
any
of
you
have
a
plan
to
cut
two
million
dollars
out
of
a
budget
to
make
zero
percent
tax
increase,
but
doing
quick
numbers
that
is
20
to
26
positions
in
the
town
of
west
vlog.
A
B
Well,
first
of
all
tonight
I've
been
looking
over
this
like
that
for
the
last
three
weeks,
any
proposed
cuts
that
I
make
tonight
is
for
budgetary
purposes.
Only
it
has
nothing
to
do
with.
If
it
comes
to,
employees
has
nothing
to
do
with
anybody's
job
performance.
B
Anyone
in
particular
it's
based
on
efficiency
and
the
thing
that
really
bothers
me.
The
most
is
we
we
just
cut.
We
had
to
find
four
million
dollars
over
the
past
six
months
in
this
current
budget.
B
So
it's
I
think
in
some
areas
we
need
to
to
clarify
one
of
them,
and
this
isn't
in
any
order.
I'd
like
to
fold
the
five
thousand
dollar
stipend
for
parks
and
rec
into
dpw.
D
B
B
B
D
B
B
All
right
I'd
also
I'm
looking
at
parks
and
rec
proposed
55
000
in
overtime.
B
B
But
then,
when
I
propose
part-time
people
to
cut
in
to
using
that
fifty
five
thousand
dollars,
then
we
don't
have
two
people,
two
part
timers.
Now
we
have
four.
So
is
this
really
about
the
help
that
you
need
and
if
it
is
just
justify
the
just
justify
that
55
000,
because
I
don't
see
it
so
if,
if
freddie's
here,
I
don't
think
he's
here.
D
B
B
And
I
don't
have
a
dollar
amount
on
that
per
se.
That'd,
be
something
I'd
like
to
discuss
here
tonight.
So
that's
that's
all
I
have.
D
Jay
I'd
like
to
discuss-
and
I
mean
again,
we
should
maybe
wait
till
freddie
comes
here
to
discuss
this
when
I
wanted
to
discuss
the
the
bringing
back
the
your
mic's,
not
working
hello,
bringing
back
the
bulk
pickup
to
the
town.
I
mean
just
from
looking
at
some
of
these
quick
numbers,
even
on
a
conservative
basis.
D
If
we
had
more
guys,
we'd
still
be
saving
500
a
month,
but
on
a
higher
basis
we
could
be
saving
up
to
1500
a
month
by
bringing
back
both
pickup
just
to
the
town
and,
in
addition
to
saving
money.
I
think
most
of
us
have
concerns
where,
if
there's
a
couch,
that
needs
to
be
picked
up
and
they
do
a
great
job
with
setting
up
the
bulk
pickup.
But
if
it
happens
now,
the
next
book
pickup
isn't
until
another
13,
12
or
13
days.
D
If
it
comes
back
to
the
town,
we
can
easily
send
somebody
out
there
to
get
that
cleaned
up
right
away,
plus
we're
saving
money
and
the
way
it's
the
way
it
looks
like
freddie.
Has
it
lined
up?
Is
it
could
be
like
first
for
these
numbers,
first
and
third
saturday
of
the
month
which
we
already,
which
we'd
already
be
doing
now,
but
through
mega,
but
now
we'd
be
having
our
own
guys
there
and
also,
I
know
some
of
some
of
my
constituents
have
complained
in
the
past.
D
I
know
you've
got
this
from
the
past
day,
but
people
want
to
go
down
there
on
a
saturday
to
drop
off
some
stuff.
We'd
have
we'd.
Have
the
ladies
and
gentlemen
down
there
two
days
a
week,
so
kind
of
two
birds
with
one
stone
and
we'd
be
saving,
looks
like
about
seventeen
thousand
dollars
a
month
a
year.
Seventeen
thousand
dollars
a
year
with
that,
just
bringing
it
back
to
the
town-
and
I
know
we're
still
in
the
middle
of
in
the
contract.
A
A
A
D
A
A
Think
that
you,
you
were
supposed
to
check
into
over
the
past
few
days,
because
we
had
that
discussion
last
weekend.
Right
looks.
D
D
And
go
come
back
to
this
all
right
anything
else,
jay
right
now.
G
John,
so,
first
of
all,
I'm
not
interested
in
cutting
positions,
I
think,
well,
I
shouldn't
say
completely,
but
to
lose
20
to
26
positions.
I
think
that
would
impede
safety,
especially
when
it
comes
to
fire
and
police.
I
am
concerned,
or
you
know
interested
in
whether
or
not
we
need
the
tangibles
collector
position.
G
I
don't
see
why
the
tax
assessor
couldn't
handle
that
it's
ten
thousand
seven.
I
would
actually.
I
would
like
to
see
that
reallocated.
I
would
personally
like
to
see
money
go
to
the
people
who
serve
on
the
committees.
We
have
multiple
committees
that
meet
throughout
the
month,
extremely
knowledgeable
people
giving
up
their
time
month
after
month
month.
G
The
planning
board
and
the
zoning
board
are
currently
paid
at
50
per
evening,
but
we
have
other
boards,
for
example,
housing's
only
paid
25
dollars
an
hour,
and
then
we
have
some
that
are
not
paid
at
all.
We
just
a
meeting.
Excuse
me.
We
just
put
the
tech
committee
together.
These
are
remarkable
people,
extremely
educated,
experienced
and
they're,
giving
up
their
evenings.
We
have
the
juvenile
hearing
board.
We
have
the
recreation
board,
which
I
would
assume
has
met
at
some
point.
No,
not
yet
not
yet.
No.
G
We're
paying
the
people
on
planning
we're
paying
people
on
zoning
that
these
people
should
be
earning
the
same
amount
of
money.
It's
nice
that
they're
giving
up
their
time,
but
it
almost
seems
unfair
that
they
don't
get
paid.
So
some
are
paid
and
some
are
not.
G
I
think
they're
earning
25
per
meeting,
and
I
know
that
the
housing
authority
had
its
issues,
but
they've
come
a
long
way
under
you
know
steve
o'rourke
and
the
board
they've
done
some
amazing
things.
In
the
last
year
I
went
to
their
annual
meeting
last
week
and
I
was
very
impressed.
H
A
The
chairman,
I
can
tell
you,
the
board
of
canvas,
has
brought
that
before
us.
The
last
last
year.
G
A
I
Well
we're
at
the
11th
hour
and
I'm
not
going
to
keep
reiterating
every
time.
I
propose
a
cut
where
it's
not
5,
000
6
000.
You
know
where
we
can't
get
a
straight
answer:
we're
about
seven
million
dollars
in
the
hole
and
counting
we're
using
sewer
plant
money
to
for
our
daily
operations,
which
is
the
enterprise
fund,
which
I
have
my
own
opinions
on
that
and
my
own
facts
believe
it
or
not.
That's
how
we're
running
our
operations.
I
I
It's
great
to
pay
all
these
people-
and
I
understand
what
you're
saying
john,
but
instead
of
paying
more
people,
I
think
we
should
start
taking
away
from
some
people,
because
it
is
a
voluntary
member.
They
they're
not
taking
the
job
for
25
a
month
or
50
dollars
a
month
and
we're
talking
pennies
we're
in
a
mess
right
now,
and
I
don't
care
what
anybody
tells
you.
I
told
you
this
four
years
ago,
but
I
was
wrong.
We
didn't
go
four
million
in
a
hole.
I
We
went
seven
and
counting,
so
anybody
that
thinks
that
we're
in
good
shape.
If
this
budget
does
go,
what
happens
next
year,
the
inevitable
there's
going
to
be
them
drastic
cuts,
you're
going
to
have
to
do
more
for
less
you're
going
to
have
to
work
with
more
staff,
and
this
is
what
the
experts
get
paid.
This
is
what
the
town
manager
gets
paid
for.
This
is
what
the
finance
director
gets
paid
for.
It's
what
the
tax
assessor
gets
paid
for.
I
This
is
a
part-time
job
for
us,
although
it's
not,
it
hasn't
been
so
on
part
of
my
constituents
and
the
constituents
of
the
town
of
west
walworth
and
the
taxpayers
and
the
business
owners.
They
cannot
afford
another
hit
either.
So
it's
all
well
and
good.
You
want
these
certain
department
heads
you
want
to
run
it.
Oh
this
one!
Don't
do
it
that
one
don't
do
it.
We
did
it
before
where's
the
money.
I
I
I
Where
jason
I
go
along
with
jason,
what
he
says
on
some
things,
and
he
don't
follow
me
and
I
don't
follow
him.
What
we
follow
is
our
brains.
Where
is
this
going?
If
you
make
a
budget
of
two
thousand
dollars
a
month
in
your
home
or
your
business,
you
don't
go,
spend
four,
you
can't
do
it.
It's
unsustainable.
I
I
So
this
is
where
every
one
of
these
council
people,
including
myself,
the
town
manager,
the
finance
director
and
an
expert
that
I've
been
saying.
We
need
an
expert
in
here
whether
it
costs
three
four
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
we're
broke
anyway,
get
the
advice
on
how
we're
gonna
go
on
the
right
track.
It's
not
raising
taxes,
it's
not
taken
away
from
dpw
or
our
municipal
workers,
we're
eight
square
miles,
guys
enough's
enough,
so
I'm
gonna
end
my
spiel
at
that
they
can
say
some
people
can
say
I'm
picking
on
them.
I
I
I
I
don't
know
if
you
hear
the
top
word
in
town
wall
they're
not
doing
what
they
used
to
do
and
they're
not
going
to,
and
I
don't
blame
them.
F
Now
the
reason
for
that
is
a
combination
of
things.
It
is
revenues
that
are
budgeted
not
coming
in
expenses
that
are
budgeted
that
are
over
expended
in
a
combination
of
the
both
each
of
those
years.
The
fund
balance
has
gone
down.
The
fund
balance
has
on
the
site,
from
balance
has
made
up
for
those
shortfalls.
F
And
that's
where
it
is
now
a
comment
was
made,
you
know:
where
can
you
find
what
happened?
Well,
if
you
take
the
audits,
they
go
sequential,
you
can
go
through
and
see
where
it
has
gone
down.
You
there's
a
chart
in
the
audits
that
says
that
lists
what
was
budgeted
and
what
the
final
result
was
on
revenues
and
expenses.
F
So
there
is
a
trail
of
what
has
happened
and
the
bottom
line
has
been.
The
town
has
been
using
the
fund
balance
to
pay
bills
for
the
reasons
that
was
set,
so
it
has
gone
down.
So
that's
a
correct
statement
from
about
five
eight
to
two
hundred
and
seventeen
thousand
fifty
five
dollars
as
of
june
thirtieth
of
2017.
B
F
Right,
that's
what's
remaining
so
at
that
point,
so
you
know
there
is
a
trail
of
where
funds
were.
If,
if
someone
wanted
to
take
the
time
and
a
lot
of
effort,
you
can
track
the
fund
balance
going
down
and
what
was
overspent
was
underspent.
I
mean
what
was
overspending
revenues.
What
was
under
spent
what
was
under
received
in
revenues
and
overspent
in
expenses,
so
it's
there,
funds
were
spent
on,
I'm
sure
would
appropriate
town
expenses,
whether
they
be
you
know,
capital
expenses.
F
I
F
I
Me
ask
you
a
question,
and
you
just
got
here,
so
I'm
not
pointing
my
finger
at
you
when
we
hire
a
town
manager
and
a
finance
director
aren't
they
supposed
to.
Let
us
know
that
we're
running
deficits
that
we're
in
trouble
before
it's
too
late.
If
they
worked
for
a
regular
company
and
not
and
not
a
town
or
a
municipality
or
a
city
or
a
state,
and
they
they
did
that
in
gillette,
would
they
still
have
their
jobs?
Well,.
F
F
And
a
few
of
the
other
items,
so
that's
with
the
fund
balance.
So
that's
where
you
know
the
fund
balance
arrived
at
or
or
went
to
and.
A
I
just
want
to
clarify
two
things
with
that
fund
balance
that
and
no
fault
of
three
members
of
this
council
that
weren't
here,
but
the
previous
administration,
with
councilman
giroux
in
kenny
han
tucker.
After
all,
said
and
done,
our
budget
passed
in
2016
and
then
the
council
decided
to
take
the
exemption
for
the
elderly
exemption.
F
A
A
A
A
I
Nothing
was
done
properly
and
who
supported
other
than
five
councilmen
who
supported
the
manager.
The
finance
director
we're
the
same
thing.
You
can't
get
any
voted
on.
You
can't
get
any
anything
productive
done
because
they're
friends,
so
how
many
votes
does
it
take
to
knock
something
down
or
to
make
a
resolution
or
an
ordinance?
How
many
councils.
I
F
A
few
other
points:
what
is
the
plan
going
forward?
The
budget
that
was
presented,
the
19
budget
is
a
balanced
budget.
If
that
budget
is
adopted,
then,
unless
something
extraordinary
happens,
you'll
have
a
balanced
budget
without
having
to
do
the
measures
that
were
done
using
fund
balance
or
having
to
do
drastic
cuts
after
the
budget's
adopted.
So
the
plan
going
forward
is
to
present
a
balanced
budget
that
is
equal.
F
As
we
said
during
this
process,
we've
come
to
you
a
few
times
with
updates
to
the
budget.
One
was
good.
The
motor
vehicle
revenue
was
good
and
the
the
second
one
was
the
tangibles
are
lower
than
expected,
but
the
budget
is
balanced
and
unless
something
unforeseeably
happens,
you
know
there
will
be
no
need
to
do
any
type
of
remedial
plan,
which
would
be
the
first
time
in
many
years.
F
The
question
about
there
were
not
sufficient
cuts
or
many
cuts
in
this
budget.
There
are
very
few
in
order
to
fund
what
we
needed
to
fund
the
budget
had
to
be
increased,
to
make
up
for
some
of
the
shortfalls
in
budgeting
in
fy18,
whether
it
be
overtime
for
police
and
fire,
because
that's
a
bill
that
would
have
to
be
paid.
So
there
were
many
items
that
had
to
be
increased
liability
insurance,
the
workers
comp
things
that
were
bills
that
sufficient
funds
in
18
weren't
available
to
pay.
F
F
In
presenting
the
budget,
my
goal
was
to
present
a
balanced
budget
based
upon
the
current
services
that
the
public
has
and
if
there
is
a
decision
to
remove
those
services,
so
that
was
the
appropriate
form
for
the
council.
The
question
of
opening
contracts,
the
contracts
are
expiring
june
30th
of
19..
F
That's
the
place
where
negotiations
will
will
take
place
to
resolve
or
bring
up
some
of
the
issues
that
we
have
with
our
structural
contracts
to
expect
the
contracts
to
be
reopened.
Before
that,
I
don't
believe,
what's
gonna
happen
and
with
some
of
the
issues
that
we've
been
having,
it
clearly
would
not
have
happened,
because
you
have
to
have
two
two
parties
to
have
to
agree
the
town
and
whatever
union.
So
you
have
to
have
two
two
parties
willing
to
reopen
contracts
and,
quite
frankly,
from
a
union
perspective,
there
is
no
incentive
to
do
that.
F
I
For
you
foresee
you're
you're,
a
finance
guy,
because
you
have
no
cuts.
You
know
whether
it's
this
year
next
year,
there'll
be
more
so
all
we're
doing.
You're
balancing
the
budget
this
year,
we're
already
four
tires
in
the
state
people.
If
you
looked
at
the
times,
you
see
the
people
losing
their
homes
for
tax
sales,
more
three
pages.
I
I
F
F
That
is
where
you
know
the
town
and
unions
will
be
working
together
because
you're
required
to
negotiate
and
that's
where
a
lot
of
decisions
will
have
to
be
made
which
will
be
critical
to
the
town
going
forward.
So
it's
a
piecemeal
step
and
from
those
negotiations
you
know
we'll
see-
and
I
mean
there
is
a
there-
is
an
interest
on
the
part
of
all
parties
to
negotiate
contracts
that
are
fair
to
the
taxpayers,
the
town
and
the
unions.
F
So
we
have
to
get
to
that
point
when
the
contracts
can
be
opened
up
and
negotiated,
and
I
think
clearly
everyone
knows
that
you
know
there
are
significant
issues.
Financial
in
the
town
and
those
issues
will
be
discussed
will
be
addressed,
and
hopefully
there
will
be
settlements
with
the
town
and
the
unions
to
move
forward
so
that
we
can
still
provide
the
basic
services
that
the
public
expects
at
a
reasonable
cost.
Would
there
be
a
zero
tax
increase
in
fy
20?
F
Maybe
maybe
not
probably
not,
but
if
we're
on
a
road
to
looking
at
the
significant
problems,
financial
problems
and
leveling
those
out
or
working
to
reduce
those,
I
think
that's
the
plan.
I
mean
it's
hard
to
say
you
know,
I
won't
say,
there's
a
three
or
five
year
plan,
because
it's
a
series
of
one-year
plans
and
adjusting
those
one-year
plans
based
upon
what
we
have
to
deal
with.
F
F
Next
year,
at
the
end
of
this
year,
probably
coming
up
sooner
than
later,
negotiations
will
start
and
then
we
will
see
where
they
develop,
but
I
do
believe
that
everyone
has
a
vested
interest
in
arriving
at
contracts
that
are
reasonable
to
all
parties
so
that
we
will
continue
moving
forward
and
that's
what
my
intent
is
is
to
move
forward.
I
can't
develop
a
five-year
plan.
I
can't
develop
a
three-year
plan,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
what's
coming
up
is
critical
for
the
upcoming
contracts.
So
that's
we.
I
I
This
gets
worse
every
day
every
day
there
is
no
cuts
whatsoever
in
this
budget,
no
cuts,
and
if
you
look
through
them,
we
pay
some
of
our
department
heads
more
than
what
we
paid
department
heads
before
and
it's
my
apology.
I
had
it
all
written
down,
but
everything
running
around
today.
I
forgot
to
bring
it
so
we
have
regular
municipal
workers
that
are
getting
nothing
and
we
have
department
heads
that
there
are
five
six
seven
thousand
dollars
more
in
their
salary
than
the
previous
well.
F
Well,
I
believe
all
the
salaries
could
be
wrong.
All
the
salaries
have
been
level
for
the
administrative
people,
possibly
with
an
exception
of
a
new
employee
coming
in,
but
I'd
also
point
out
that
again,
the
non-union
employees
and
directors,
which
really
aren't
that
many
that's
their
salary,
their
subordinates
in
many
cases,
make
more
than
what
the
department
heads
make.
F
A
Okay,
okay,
so
what
I
got
here
and
now
I
think
freddy
showed
up.
I
think
I
see
him
in
the
back.
See
here,
hey
frank
fred:
can
you
come
on
up?
We've
got
a
couple
of
questions
about
bulk
pickup
recycling
coordinator
performance.
A
A
A
A
E
E
E
Are
some
of
the
numbers
she
wasn't
there,
but
and
the
most
value
you're
gonna
get
would
be
the
on
the
same
days
that
we
do
the
saturdays
where
the
yards
open
in
the
back,
because
that
money
is
already
the
first
saturday
right,
the
first
and
the
third
which
is
because
that's
always
that's
already
been
a
bet
budgeted.
D
I
see
that's
the
number
where
we
save
14.52
correct.
A
A
month
yes
a
month,
correct
and
again
so
my
next
question
is
so.
E
Check
in,
like
everybody
that
comes
to
the
window
for
a
drop
off
there's
your
radios
are
back
to
see.
You
know
what's
coming
in
so.
A
E
She's
doing
all
the
all
the
recycling
and
all
the
garbage
stuff
with
all
the
bins
and
all
the
garbage
she's
she's
a
relay
woman
for
in
between
us
and
mega.
E
A
D
D
And
then
also,
if
we
do
this
correct
me,
if
I'm
wrong
like
if
it's
a
tuesday
and
we're
like
listen,
somebody
put
couch
out
there
freddie,
can
you
send
somebody
over
there?
We
would
be
able
to
do
that
and
if
that
happened
now
right
just
as
normal
day
to
day
correct,
not
to
say
that
that
should
be
it
shouldn't,
be
it
shouldn't,
be
it.
E
D
But
like
right
now,
megan
doesn't
come
until
I
believe
the
second,
whatever
the
first
saturday
of
may
so
you'd
be
waiting
12
days
correct,
whereas
now
we
wouldn't
have
to
wait
12
days
you
could
hey
probably.
D
A
A
John,
yes,
all
right
and
I
agree
so
that
would
be
so.
We
can
look
at
that,
but
that
would
also
stop
july
february.
A
E
A
I
think
any
other
questions
for
oh
parks
and
rec
yeah.
I
do.
E
I
think
there's
the
one
folder
I
didn't
even
bring
it
as
of
the
last
couple
years.
You
see
that
we
kept
going
over,
so
I
just
tried
to
put
a
little
more
in
just
a
you
know
just
to
cushion
the
blow.
E
But
my
question
is
more:
oh
because
it's
it's
all
for
someone's
question,
because
in
the
summertime,
where
all
the
ball
feels
all
the
games
going
on,
I
mean
games
run
late
and
stuff
like
that
and
then
sometimes
you
know
you
have
extra
snowstorms
where
he
comes
in
and
plows,
but
it's
mainly
in
the
summertime.
Where
he's
he's
on
the
on
the
fields.
Why.
E
A
Yeah
with
beans,
because
the
games
run
late,
ready
for,
for
instance,
far
as
cotton
grass,
that's
fine,
but
they
do
maintain
andy
smith
and
mccarthy
and
ray
silva.
So.
I
H
E
A
So
in
his
games
on
monday
night
and
sometime
sunday,
one
thing
I
know
they've
tried
to
stop
doing
is
the
holiday
games
yeah,
because,
even
though
I
know
I've
stopped
it
memorial
day
games,
even
though
it's
the
most
popular
weekend
for
baseball,
I.
A
A
A
A
B
E
B
B
It's
a
lot!
It's
a
person,
it's
a
full-time
person,
55
000.
So
if
you
were
to
hire
part-time
people
like
I'm,
not
gonna,
I'm
not
mike.
I
don't
want
to
micromanage
this.
You
know,
but
I
just
think
we
could
either
save
a
lot
of
money
with
people
with
a
few
more
part-time
people
or
schedule
it
a
little
bit
differently
that
that's
that's
just
a
big
knot.
E
E
There's
always
garbages
around
there's,
there's
five
fields
down
there
that
are
constantly
being
used
during
the
day.
Not
that
dead.
I
mean
it's
also
native.
I
know
you
know
so
the
constant
running
around
and
if
there's
something
happens
to
the
mound
or
during
the
game,
it
you
know
got
to
call
somebody
back.
That's
four
hours.
You
want
the
one.
Why
am.
B
D
B
D
B
A
minute,
no,
no
there's
more
than
that,
but
why
are
we
responsible
for
it?
I
just
it
doesn't
work
this
way
in
in
other
places
and
not
just
carpentry.
It's
many
other
towns.
It's.
This
is
something
unique.
That's
all
that
we're
there
and
we
groom
all
the
fields
all
the
time
that
we
line
it.
We
drag
it
after
every
game.
A
lot.
A
lot
of
municipalities.
A
No,
but
they
only
prep
three
fields
as
far
as
for
the
for
the
leagues
and
not
even
for
the
leagues
ray
silva
because
they
put
20
thousand
dollars
into
that
in
field.
Thirty,
almost
thirty
thousand
dollars
inside
infield,
mccarthy
and
andy
smith.
Those
are
the
three
that
they
drag
and
get
ready
for
the
schools
in
other
leagues.
Andy
smith,
is
only
for
the
high
school
they
don't
prep
for
any
other
league.
So
does
the
high.
E
B
E
We
pay
for
all
the
supplies
too.
B
A
B
A
A
Well,
I
want
to
point
out
the
concession:
oh,
not
the
concession,
the
dugout
on
the
girls
field,
softball
field
over
the
winter
blew
off.
The
whole
thing
blew
off.
It
was
right
behind
me.
They
had
to
try
to
salvage
strip
it
down,
salvage,
put
it
up
with
dpw
and
parks
and
rec.
They
came
in
with
a
backhoe
put
it
up
now.
That's
work
that
they
weren't
even
depending
on
now.
They
got
to
put
roofs
on
the
little
girls
field
right.
E
A
Like
right
now,
I
understand:
there's
no
grass
cut,
there's
very
little
grass
cutting
going
on
so
they're
able
to
do
some
of
this
stuff,
but
to
get
our
fields
looking
the
way
they
do
and
I'll
compare
it
to
any
community,
there's
only
one
other
community.
I
think
that
has
an
equal
feel
to
us
and
that's
south
kingston
as
far
as
baseball
fields.
If
you
look
at
this
yeah
budget,
yeah
they're,
almost
they're
parks
and
rec,
almost
three
million
dollars
in
south
kingston.
D
We
obviously
don't
have
the
money
to
each
base
360
feet
out.
We
also
have
the
money
for
in
this
budget,
but
how
much
money
do
you
think
we
would
save
over
the
course
of
time
if
we
got
one
of
those
big
tractors
throughout
there
and
and
trim
some,
I
mean
not
just
the
bike
path,
but
there's
other
areas
that
could
be
done
with
something
like
that
right.
How
much
do
you
think
we
would
save
over
the
course
of
a
few
years.
E
Off
my
head,
I'm
not
sure
I
mean
manpower
yeah
along
with
manpower.
I
shouldn't
say
you
know,
but
I
mean
I
noticed
some
money
for
it
now,
but
in
the
future,
something.
A
A
A
I
spend
the
most
time
in
those
fields.
Freddie
spends
a
lot
of
time
off
duty
in
those
fields.
Okay,
we
got
an
eye
out.
We
do
not
see
too
much
laziness
going
on
around
there.
I'm.
A
All
to
anybody,
I
know
the
work
they
do
on
saturdays
working
overtime.
I
can
tell
you
they're
not
sitting
here
sitting
in
a
truck
behind
a
building
somewhere.
I
can
tell
you,
you
see
them
out
there
and
yes
do
they
get
distracted
once
in
a
while,
where
somebody
wants
to
talk
to
him,
because
you
know
you
know
a
league
president
comes
up
starts
talking
to
him.
B
E
A
B
A
E
A
I
personally
agree
with
the
town
manager
in
a
little
bit
of
respect
here
because
of
the
things
that's
going
on
over
the
past
two
to
three
years,
and
one
was
just
the
last
budget
hearing
when
you
sat
here
and
told
you
that
workman's
comp
claims
are
down
because
we
saved
140
000
because
of
our
workers,
comp
and
that's
kudos
to
the
employees,
working
safe,
kudos
to
investigations
and
whatever
else
goes
on
up
in
the
hr
department,
I've
talked
to
most
department
heads
they
all
chief
paris.
A
A
I
know
brief
conversations
with
chief
mcgarrett
he's
felt
pretty
secure
about
the
department
and
department
heads
have
said.
This
is
a
department
that
needs
to
be
there
for
the
employees.
Now
there
are
other
issues
as
far
as
health
care
questions
for
employees,
personal
issues,
employees
are
having
they
go
to
hr.
Okay.
Now
people
have
brought
up
things
to
me,
angela,
you
brought
them
up
in
here
about
performance
issues
or
whatever
that's.
A
Okay,
but
this
position
by
far
needs
to
be
here
now
whether
or
not
dollar
amounts
whatever
it
may
be,
is
one
thing,
but
this
position
needs
to
be
here
there.
I
was
an
advocate
for
this
councilman
jerusalem
advocate
for
this,
because
we
saw
what
went
on
here
over
the
years
and
you
know
not
just
not
just
what
goes
on
behind
closed
doors,
but
also
the
presence
and
having
employees
being
able
to
go
in
and
deal
with
issues.
A
G
I
would
keep
that
position
based
on.
As
you
said,
I've
experienced
the
same.
Multiple
people
over
the
years,
including
the
former
manager
former
councilman,
said
that
they
they
needed
this
position
that
you
know
it
took
a
lot
of
the
responsibility
out
of
the
hands
of
the
department
heads
and
it's
only
been
an
asset
to
the
town
and,
of
course,
based
on
the
manager's
recommendation.
It
would
seem
that
for
now
that
position
should
stay
so.
A
I
No,
maybe
something
with
not
to
get
into
their
medicals.
Maybe
someone
who
confides
in
a
council
person,
let's
use,
for
instance,
maybe
I
got
threatened
or
something
that
could
have
been
avoided
and
it
continues
and
I
go
see
a
doctor
because
I
can't
take
it
anymore.
A
I
I
A
A
I
D
Yeah,
I'm
probably
in
between
you
and
angelo,
I'm
probably
with
leaning
with
the
councilman
charity,
for
a
part-time
position.
F
The
budget
proposes
to
take
the
part-time
position
over
to
the
manager's
department
as
a
full-time
executive
secretary,
so
that
person
that
that
department
is
going
to
be
one
person
and
the
types
of
duties
and
responsibilities
that
go
with
that
department,
whether
it
be,
as
was
said,
dealing
with
employee
issues
dealing
with
collective
bargaining
issue,
grievance
issues
dealing
with
the
mundane
questions
on
blue
cross
benefits.
There's
open
enrollments,
there's
situations
like
that.
There's
individuals
who
go
out
on
mfla
leave
so
there's
always
a
constant
flow
of
work
to
be
done
as
well.
F
As
I
said,
the
grievances
responding
to
and
reviewing
various
complaints
doing,
that
type
of
review
being
a
part
of
you
know
the
meetings
when
we
look
at
insurance,
coverages
and
things
of
that
nature.
So
it's
it's
a
it's
a
constant
ongoing
situation,
a
position
that
again,
if
you,
if
you
look
at
trying
to
do
something
like
that
again
on
a
part-time
basis,
I'm
going
to
get
my.
I
have
some
some
notes
here
from
the
last
meeting.
F
Again,
if
you
know
much
of
what's
done
is
unscheduled.
You
know
if
you
have
an
employee
issue
to
come
up,
whether
it
be
something
that
needs
to
be
taken
immediate
action
on
you
know.
You
know
you
have
to
have
that
available.
F
The
work
is
highly
confidential,
which
is
remains
to
be
seen.
The
position
has
to
be
knowledgeable
in
federal
state
and
local
laws,
including
labor
laws,
family,
medical
leave
or
anything
of
that
nature,
ensure
compliance
with
collective
bargaining
agreements
assists
and
handles.
With
responses
to
employee
grievances
recommends
disciplinary
action
reviews
compliance
issues
with
contracts
coordinates
all
the
internal
hiring
process,
whether
it
be
posting
and
all
that
goes
on
with
that
internally,
as
well
as
any
external
recruitments.
F
That
position
will
be.
Does
that.
D
What's
the
what's
the
difference
from
part-time
for
the
secretary
position
as
opposed
to
being
full-time
now,
okay,.
F
Basically,
the
position
is
part-time.
Now,
currently,
in
the
manager's
office,
correct
and
again
it's
a
very
highly
confidential
environment.
F
The
secretary
the
executive
assistant,
does
the.
If
you
want
to
say
the
stan
standard
you
know.
Clerical
work
also
is
like
the
first
line
of
contact
for
citizens.
Citizens
with
issues
problems
concerns
to
identify
what
those
are
and
if
they
can
be
resolved
by
a
director,
then
the
call
is
forwarded
to
the
director
or
a
call
is
asked
to
do
that
right.
F
For
for
that,
for
that
for
yeah
for
the
well
in
my
office,
that's
what
they
do
also,
you
know,
maintains
the
records,
the
scheduling,
appointments,
relays,
to
structure
instructions
to
directors
of
my
behalf
or
the
town
managers
behalf.
So
that's
what's
being
done,
four
hours
or
three
and
a
half
hours
a
day.
F
As
I
tell
manager,
I
used
to
have
many
kinds
of
spreadsheets
and
many
kinds
of
reports.
You
know.
After
every
council
meeting,
I
would
have
a
report
of
all
the
significant
issues
on
the
council,
whether
it
be
resolutions
to
follow
up
follow-ups
from
the
meetings.
I
would
have
all
that
documented
on
the
report,
and
so
we
would
determine
what
they
are
responsible
party
and
any
kind
of
inquiry.
F
You
know
I
could
say
what
that
is
immediately.
We
would
have
responses
for
similar
with
citizens.
Concerns
we'd
have
a
similar
report
for
those,
so
that
we
would
know
if
the
citizen's
concern
comes
in
with
who
is
it
referred
to
and
make
sure
that
it's
addressed
so
a
lot
of
more
data
driven
than
we
have
currently
and
probably
has
been
done
so
so
a
lot
of
plans
to
expand
the
basic
roles
and
I've
been
doing
that
a
lot
of
research
and
a
lot
of
research
will
be
necessary
with
upcoming
projects
and
issues.
F
So
I
see
it
very
more
expanded
to
what
it
is
so
that
it
would
be
necessary
for
a
full-time
position,
and
I
am
not
aware
of
many
town
manager
situations
that
doesn't
have
someone
someone
there
that's
full-time,
even
for
the
office
flow
at
half
the
time
you
know.
Sometimes
I'm
working,
you
know
people
will
come
in
which
is
okay,
but
I
can't
really
assist
them
can't
help
them,
because
I'm
either
working
or
in
a
meeting
or
something
of
that
nature.
F
Well,
it
would
be
mostly
my
position
and
assisting
hr
when
available
and
I
would
see
it
assisting
hr.
So
I
would
say
that's
true,
but
I
see
more
of
a
role
for
the
manager's
position
in
office,
so
at
that
point
then
it
becomes
okay.
You
have
one
person
dealing
with
all
the
personal
issues,
whether
it
be
the
routine
things
and
whether
it
be
non-routine
things.
So
one
position
is
definitely
necessary
for
that.
Ernie.
I
F
I
F
F
You
know
doing
a
certain
amount
of
the
personnel
work
which
would
have
to
be
done
by
the
manager's
office
will
restrict
the
manager,
whoever
it
is,
the
manager's
ability
to
perform
the
functions
that
are
necessary
in
general,
the
more
that's
asked
of
individuals,
the
less
effective
they
can
become
because
they're
doing
more
and
more,
unless
somebody's
not
doing
anything.
We're.
D
A
D
That's
between
both
of
those
positions,
just
just.
A
H
The
gentleman
that
we
use
to
do
our
tangible
tax-
that's
all
the
money
he
receives.
He
doesn't
receive
any
pension
money,
no
vacation
time
anything
that
75
days.
That
would
now
be
on
my
back
at
75
days
that
I
would
not
have
to
do
other
things
that
would
be
bringing
more
money
into
the
town
looking
for
real
estate,
measuring
properties
going
out
and
actually
visiting
them,
as
opposed
to
probably
getting
plans
and
getting
all
the
information
that
way.
H
I
know
I've
talked
with
mr
beating
when
tony
first
came
on
to
do
this
job
for
the
town
and
the
amount
of
money,
the
amount
of
businesses
that
he's
found
and
the
money
that
he's
brought
in
it's
like
the
gift
that
keeps
on
giving
once
you
find
him
once
they're
here
every
year,
and
he
does
an
excellent
job.
He's
been
doing
this
for
over
40
years,
so
he's
got
a
lot
more
expertise
in
it
than
I
do
it's
that
particular
job.
H
H
Not
all
of
them
know
how
to
fill
out
the
forms
the
correct
way,
so
you
lose
a
lot
of
money
that
way,
if
you
don't
know
how
to
interpret
forms,
no.
A
H
We
keep
time
in
the
office
he
comes
in
in
the
office,
this
part
of
the
year
with
january,
through
april.
A
lot
of
that
is
spent
going
through
all
the
forms
that
come
in
he's
only
here.
Maybe
you
know
one
two
days
a
week
doing
it
comes
in
for
a
half
a
day.
You
know
monday,
tuesday,
wednesday
or
may
sometimes
it's
four
days,
the
busier
parts
of
the
year.
You
know
he'll
be
in
more
than
you
know
more
often
than
others.
How
is.
H
B
H
75
full
days,
but
that
translates
into
150
half
days
this.
You
can't
go
out
certain
times
of
the
day
once
the
bills
go
out.
He'll
do
a
whole
tour
of
the
town.
He'll
go
down
every
every
main
street,
every
side
street,
verifying
businesses
that
are
still
still
there.
H
I
G
And
I
just
want
to
double
check,
because
I
agree
with
what
you're
saying
the
position
pays:
10
700
a
year
is
that
correct,
so
it
comes
out
to
somewhere
around
seventeen
dollars
an
hour.
Eight
eighteen
dollars
an
hour
position
about
six
hundred
hours
a
year.
You
can
only
work
so.
H
H
He
was
looking
for
another
ten
dollars,
ten
to
twenty
dollars
a
day.
I
figured
what
the
number
was.
H
I'm
against
the
race
yeah
that
was
in
my
that
was
in
my
car.
The
depart
the
manager's
budget
did
not
have
that
in
there.
A
H
A
We
have
planning
zoning,
I'm
sorry,
juvenile
wreck,
housing,
possibly
getting
paid
kristen.
If
you
can
just
run
the
numbers
on
that
of
each
board
and
who
doesn't
get
paid
and
what
the
budgetary
differences
I
I
foresee
it's
only
going
to
be
probably
10
000
somewhere
around
there
for
all
the
boards,
but
we
need
a
solid
number
if
the
council
wants
to
vote
on
that,
I
mean.
D
G
What
I'm
saying
it's
not
that
they're
joining
the
board.
I
think
they
would
join
the
board
without
the
stipend,
but
I
think
we
have
some
committees
that
get
paid
and
some
that
don't.
But
I
can
tell
you
like
with
the
new
technology
committee,
that
we
have
people
who
are
experts
in
their
fields
and
they
are,
they
are.
D
F
A
With
keep
it
status
quo
until
until
we
know
more,
I
understand
what
you're
saying
councilman,
I'm.
A
Because
I
asked
the
same
question
I
mean
I
think
you
know
for
that
small
little
stipend,
you
get
more
involvement
per
se.
You
know.
G
I
served
on
juvenile
hearing
and
I
took
it
very
seriously
I
gave
up
my
evening.
I
went
there
was
no
pay,
that's
fine.
I
mean
we
give
up
a
lot
of
time
even
as
councilman.
You
know
how
much
time
we
give
up,
but
then
I
would
go
to
zoning
and
I
mean
I
I
didn't
feel
like.
I
was
doing
anything
beyond
what
I
was
doing
at
juvenile
hearing
in
terms
of
my
time
and
my
expertise,
but
yet
I
get
a
check
from
yeah
from
zoning,
so
I
don't
know
it
just
feels
unbalanced.
I.
A
All
right,
that's
all
I
have
on
my
notes,
except
for
a
library
I.
G
A
A
Time
that
was
for
police
fire
municipal
police
are
separate
because
they
they're
already
in
there,
but
that's
for
municipal
and
fire,
which
you
might
be
moving
that
over
tomorrow
in
the
budget
anyway
for
fire.
Now
the
question
I
have
did
you
have
library
built
into
that
dollar
amount.
F
A
So
there's
a
couple
of
other
savings
that
we
had
in
here
right:
145
577
for
the
workers
comp
claims
that
the
insurance
went
down.
I
mean,
if,
if
you
want,
we
can
take
that
145.
Take
it
right
off
the
budget
or
if
you
want
to.
I
G
I
H
G
G
G
I
I
mean,
I
think,
I'm
not.
D
G
B
I
I
agree
that
they're
I've
said
it
before
that
to
have
a
master's
degree
make
30.
000
is
insulting,
and
I
didn't
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
there
to
cut,
because
I
like
to
make.
I
wanna
make
cuts
at
all,
but
I'm
looking
at
the
big
picture
and
we
don't
have
a
hell
of
a
lot
of
money.
I'm
gonna
go
back
to
the
same
thing
I
was
talking
about
earlier.
We
sat
here.
We
had
two
corrective
action
plans.
B
I
no
and
we're
cutting
I'm
making
proposed
cuts
now.
If
that
was
the
case,
then
I
wouldn't
have
made
any
of
those.
So
no
I'm
I'm
not
I'm
looking
to
get
back
on
track
and
gonna
listen
to
ernie
get
back
on
track.
Hopefully
we
can.
I
wasn't
here
for
the
five-year
plan
I
was
in.
I
don't
know
what
was
discussed.
I've
heard
many
different
things
from
many
different
people
about
what
was
promised.
What
was
told
emails
that
were
sent.
I
wasn't
here
for
any
of
that.
B
The
way
I
understood
it
was,
if
you
you
have
this,
you
have
this
going
forward.
This
is
what
you
stick
to
to
get
out
of
this
hole
and
part
of
what
I'm
seeing
is
it
wasn't
stuck
to
so
I
don't
want
to
do
another
five-year
plan.
I'm
not
asking
for
that.
I
understand
what
you're
saying
one
year
at
a
time,
but
I
think
this
is
critic
is
a
critical
year
as
a
step
to
next
year.
A
Is
your
salaries
but
there's
one
line
item
I
don't
see
in
the
library
whatsoever
and
that's
overtime,
I
don't
think
they
work
overtime
and
so
what
they
make
at
thirty
thousand
dollars
a
year
is
what
they're
taking
home.
A
I
will
say:
there's
not
too
many
departments
that
don't
have
option
for
overtime
in
the
town
police,
fire
municipal.
They
all
have
options
for
overtime,
some
clerks.
Don't
I
understand
that,
but
you
know
I.
I
agree
that
having
a
master's
degree-
and
I
when
this
was
brought
to
our
attention
a
couple
years
ago
and
me
personally,
I'd
like
to
see
the
library
open
even
longer
and
that's
what
his
goal
was
out
of
the
50
000.
A
A
More
more
hours
director's
decision
decision.
A
I
would
like
to
see
it
for
opening,
but
I
think
he
would
rather
see
it
for
salary
and,
in
my
opinion
and
we've
said
it
all
these
years
angelo
if
nobody's
getting
a
raise,
nobody's
getting
a
raise
okay,
but
this
year,
police
no
hidden
secret
was
awarded
okay,
and
at
that
point
my
opinion
changed.
We.
A
A
A
But
this
budget
has
to
pass,
though
I
mean
plain
and
simple:
it
has
to
be
discussed
if
with
the
unions-
and
you
know
if,
if
that
money's
budgeted
now,
but
if
the
budget
gets
voted
down
that
money's
not
there,
we
have
to
figure
out,
we
have
to
cut
two
million
dollars
and
that's
500
000
right
there.
The.
D
B
A
I
A
A
I
A
A
A
I
A
I
G
Figure
it
out
what
about
the
money
for
the
fencing
for
the
shelter.
G
And
the
other
thing
is:
did
the
the
radios
for
the
fire
department
did
that
get
out.
D
D
On
the
left,
something
probably
in
between
you
and
john
I'll
say
15.
somewhere
in
between
there
and
then
let
let
not
as
a
stipend
but
let
well
I'd
like
to
know
where
it's
going
to
go.
That's
that's
the
question
you
just
what
you
just
said
where
he
wants
it
to
go.
That's
what
you
said
with
the
20
correct.
What's
that.
D
A
A
H
Yeah,
the
fifty
thousand
dollars
I
asked
for
was
just
for
salaries
I
do
want
to
be.
We
do
want
to
be
open
an
extra
four
hours
in
order
to
do
that,
we
need
to
hire
another
full-time
person,
which
will
be
more
money,
which
would
be
another
forty
or
fifty
thousand
dollars.
So
really
what
I'm
talking
about
is
to
get
to
where
we
need
to
be
it's
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
the
fifty
thousand
dollars.
I
I'm
sorry
for
the
misunderstanding
about
that.
H
The
50
000
was
just
for
salaries,
and
that
was
to
get
us
to
a
point
where
we
could
align
ourselves
with
the
town
where,
when
salary
increases
happen
to
the
municipal
workers,
we
can
take
that
same
amount
for
the
library
work
workers
and
it
will
actually
mean
something.
D
H
Sorry
yeah
there
are
nine
nine
full-time
people,
those
nine
full-time
workers
are
in
the
union.
H
A
A
On
the
base,
so
you
take
the
salaries
divided,
take
the
15
000
divided
by
the
salaries,
and
it
comes
up
to
3.7
percent.
G
So
a
couple
things
one
there's
the
hundred
and
forty
five
thousand
dollar
savings
from
the
healthcare,
the
workers
comp,
but
didn't
we
also
talk
about
cutting
the
advertising
budget
on
page
17
under
general
government
by
ten
thousand
dollars?
Was
that
discussed
yeah
yep?
So
I
mean
that's,
that's
a
possibility
to
take
the
money
from
there,
or
at
least
a
portion
of
it,
take
take
ten
from
the
advertising
and
take
five
from
the
the
workers
comp.
That's.
D
140,
what's
the
exact
number
140.
A
It'd
be
140
actually
145.77
if,
if
we
took
the
10
000
from
the
advertising
and
the
5
000
from
the
workers,
comp
moved
over
to
the
library
that
would
leave
us
140
000
out
of
the
workers
comp
plus,
whatever
we
saved
here
now,
we
have
a
consensus.
Kristen
has
suggested
the
140
get
moved
over
to
where
kristen.
A
E
I
B
B
B
E
B
D
B
Hopefully
the
same
employees
out
here
I
don't
know,
but
it's
I'm
just
thinking
of
your
pensions.
Honestly,
I'm
thinking
is
the
money
going
to
be
there
when
you
when
you
need
it.
That's
all
so
I
don't
know
to
answer
it.
We
owe
so
much
to
everywhere
else
right
yeah,
let's
cut
it
down.
F
So
if
a
recommended
amount
is
12
percent
a
budget
year,
we
could
budget,
you
know
16
or
or
so
so
it
can
depends
on
the
budgets
going
forward.
Ideally,
you
would
take
what
you
believe
you're
going
to
spend
plus
an
additional
amount,
and
if
that
holds
true,
then
the
additional
amount
will
go
into
this
turtle
service
fund
and
start
reducing
that
amount
that's
owed
and
again
with
self-insurance.
I
mean
it
depends.
If
it's
you
have
a
good
year,
then
that
can
be
be
done.
If
you
have
a
bad
year
well,
then
you
can't
do
that.
F
A
A
Programs
like
concentra,
instead
of
going
to
you,
know
rhode,
island
hospital
or
something
like
that.
That's
that's
just
things
that
councilman
d'amico
myself
and
the
town
manager
have
been
discussing
working
on
meeting
with
different
insurance
companies
trying
to
figure
out
different
plans.
So
we
have
to
try
to
keep
figuring
out
how
to
keep
health
care
costs.
There's
no
hidden
secret
health
care
and
pensions
are
the
most
expensive
part
of
our
budget.
A
A
Now
three
years
ago
it
was
probably
one-eighth
because
we're
only
putting
one
and
a
half
million,
and
if
we
continue
going
that
way-
and
that's
you
got
to
look
at
that,
we
continue
going
that
way.
It
wouldn't
be
there
today,
it's
not
perfectly
funded
now,
but
it's
much
better
off
than
five
years
ago.
A
E
A
I
know
near
and
dear
to
the
young
lady
in
the
front
row
is
the
dog
pong.
We
had
some
discussion,
animal
shelter.
I
mean
the
animal
shelter,
I'm
sorry.
I
keep
going
on
the
wrong.
The.
H
A
We
had
some
discussions
about
that.
We
just
wanted
to
correct
some
line
items.
Just
did
you
correct
those
over
the
last.
E
I
don't
want
to
make
sure
those
consensus
so
the
outstanding
items
I
have
are
suggestions
to
increase
the
revenue
line
for
animal
climates
and
fees
from
zero
to
three
thousand
increase
budget,
because
there's
no
budget
also
to
increase
the
animal
shelter
supplies.
I
believe
that
8
000
to
11
000.,
so
that
would
actually
be
budget
neutral.
E
A
It's
not
it's
not
there.
We
should
remove
it
and
that's
now
in
the
budget
I
know
the
chief
had.
I
think
it
was
30
000
and
it
was
supposed
to
be
split
between
the
gun
range
and
the
animal
shelter.
But
tomorrow
night,
when
we're
taking
15
000
out
of
this
year's
budget
out
of
the
parks
supplies
which
is
supposed
to
be
for
the
community
event
which
we
didn't
have
this
year
and
we're
going
to
move
it
towards
the
fencing.
So
is
there
anything
that
we
well.
D
E
A
A
E
There's
a
suggestion
to
reduce
the
police
capital
by
15
for
the
for
tomorrow
night's
discussion,
also
the
adjustments
to
the
fire,
where
there's
a
difference
about
9
800
from
what
he
originally
from
chief
barracks,
proposed,
adding
radios
of
12
800.
But
then
the
boil
repair
dropped
to
9
000..
So
the
difference
was
9
800
in
the
fire
capital
that
wasn't
included
in
what
he
originally
asked.
For.
E
E
E
E
G
A
A
The
consensus
was:
keep
the
thermal
imaging
cameras
in
there.
I
know
I
personally
use
them
and
in
a
smoky
building
I
couldn't
see
the
chief
from
here
or
there,
but
if
I
use
that
thermal
imaging
camera,
I
could
see
chief
mcgarrett
sitting
there
back
there.
So
I
think
that's
a
huge
safety
thing
for
our
men
and
women
of
the
fire
department,
women,
but
men
of
the
fire
department
and
for
our
residents.
You
know
every
especially
when
a
burn
building
or
smoking
building
every
second
counts
in
there.
If
they
can
get
you
out,
can.
B
I
ask
you
a
question:
yes
in
in
your
rescue
fund
that
you
have.
Is
that
can
you
utilize?
B
C
You
need
like
an
extra
10
000.
You
know,
for
instance,
for
the
cameras
we
are
buying.
We
have
a
truck
coming
in
granted.
We
did
get
336
thousand
dollars
for
grant
for
it,
but
the
truck
is
going
to
come
with
equipment
on
it
right.
So
a
lease
payment
will
take
care
of
the
difference
with
that
truck
with
the
equipment
on
it,
because
you
can't
buy
a
strip
truck
and
I
roll
equipment
from
the
1971
not
compatible,
knock
couplings
and
all
that,
so
new
equipment
should
come
with
it.
C
C
Well,
I
have,
I
have
the
ladder
trucks
all
spec'd
out,
ready
to
go,
there'll
be
a
lot
of
truck.
We
could
cash
in
once
we
get
the
new
truck,
but
that'll
be
a
year
from
now.
If
you
approve
the
truck
today,
it
takes
a
year
to
build
a
truck
right
now
our
fleet
is
in
the
best
shape.
It's
ever
been
since
the
mid-90s,
when
they
did
buy
a
few
piece
of
apparatus.
C
And
the
days
are
running
when
a
1971
truck
finally
is
over
with
a
little
help
from
some
grants
and
the
men
next
door
and
the
council
helping
that's
where
we
are,
keep
keep.
C
Twelve
thousand
eight
hundred
for
two
dual
band,
portable
radios,
which
is
part
of
our
five
to
ten
year
replenishment,
plan
that
the
colonel
I
told
you
about
a
couple
weeks
ago:
the
server
we
have
a
seven-year-old
server
that
needs
to
be
replaced,
that's
22,
300.
C
and
the
heating
system.
We
had
a
quote
for
station
two
at
nine
thousand
dollars.
That's
just
a
quote
right
now,
because
I
had
to
give
you
something
that
was
a
legit
legitimate
quote
from
a
company.
E
Imaging
camera,
and
then
we
have
the
lack
of
communication
and
the
reduction
and
the
boiler
system.
So
right
now
I
have
443
in
there
and
it's
10
000
for
building
improvements,
12
000
for
the
heating
system
for
the
server.
So
I
can
reduce
right
now
the
heating
system,
down
to
nine,
because
he's
already
saying
it's
the
full
time
and
then
it's
up
to
you.
If
you
want
to
do
the
thermal
imaging
and
the
radios,
if
you
want
to
add
those
in.
D
C
B
B
B
C
A
C
D
A
C
C
C
E
A
C
B
D
C
A
C
Every
every
frontline
piece
has
radios,
I
think
it's,
I
believe
it's
engine
two,
we
have
three.
We
have.
C
I
think
it's
injured.
I
could
be
wrong
on
which
engine
we
have
so.
C
I
G
And
I
just
ask
one
more
question
sure:
so,
a
lot
of
times
radio
technology
changes
like,
for
example,
the
scanners
years
ago,
you
could
buy
for
99
at
radio
shack.
Then,
all
of
a
sudden
they
started
with
this
trunking.
So
you
couldn't
purchase
a
radio
for
99
dollars.
You
if
you
wanted
to
listen
in
you
had
to
spend.
Probably
500..
A
A
So
get
as
much
if
we
get
one
more
year
out
of
it,
we
got
12,
800
or
whatever
out
of
it.
That's
that's
my
opinion.
I
I
hate
the
penny.
Pinch
like
this
jeep,
but
everybody's
bickering
about
a
dollar
and
I'm
and
something
that's
working
perfectly
fine.
I
want
to
throw
away
just
because
we
we
think
it's
good
to
replace
it
if
they
weren't
working.
I
agree
with
your
whole
heart,
but
right
now,
they're
working,
I'm
one
guy,
that's
whatever
the
council's
choice
is
so
he
said
one.
He
said
two.
H
A
D
A
E
C
I
A
E
E
A
We
want
to
take
that
out
tonight.
Tomorrow
night,
I
mean,
I
think
the
overall
consensus
of
the
council
was
we're
going
to
take
it
out
for
this
year,
15
000.
So
unless
there's
a
lot
more
work,
that
needs
to
be
done.
That
we
don't
know
about-
and
you
know,
is
the
15
000
gonna
cover
the
fence
repairs
down.
There
is
the
question.
D
Yeah
yeah,
so
I
so
I
did.
I
did
speak
with
lori.
I
went
down
there
and
checked
out
the
the
shelter
and
she
got
a
quote
now.
D
This
is
this
was
four
years
ago,
so
the
so
the
quote
could
be
different
at
this
point,
was
22
thousand
of
cases
would
have
to
go
back
out
to
bid
again
at
this
point,
but
I
know
I
spoke
with
the
councilman
charity
and
I
have
some
extra
money
in
my
ward
fund,
where
I'd
be
willing
to
give
5
000
towards
that
to
get
us
closer
to
that
number.
So
at
least,
if
that
would
put
us
to
20
000,
it
would
bring
us
closer
to
that
amount.
H
F
I
think
there
was
also
a
discussion
of
reducing
the
backflow
of
preventers.
You
had
that
already:
okay,
okay.
F
It
was
capital,
I
know
there
was
a
discussion.
25
000
was
budgeted
for
those
two
service
lines
and
there
was
discussion
that
you
know
it
should
be
less
because
some
people
have
been
doing
that
at
a
lesser
cost.
I
think
it
was.
Five
thousand
talked
about
reducing
it,
but
I
could
be
wrong
so
we'll
make
that
change.
F
E
A
I
know
I
have
in
the
town
council
the
video
streaming
at
6400
circled,
and
I
think
you
have
an
update
for
us
on
that.
Why
it's
only
at
fifteen
hundred
and
forty
two
dollars
to
this.
E
E
A
A
E
E
Tom
006
colonial
way,
councilman
d'amico,
greatly
appreciate
the
idea
of
a
stipend
for
the
folks
that
serve
on
different
committees
and
boards
in
the
town,
but
something
to
consider
I'm
probably
going
to
get
shot
for
this,
but
in
the
spirit
of
volunteerism
in
this
community
we
have
so
many
people
that
do
so
much
great
work
and
volunteer.
I
was
shocked
to
find
out
that
some
of
these
committees
are
compensated
meager.
You
know
it's
gas
money,
basically,
but
approximately
how
much?
E
I
think
the
question
was
asked
how
much
I
think
comes
out
of
the
budget
to
pay
those
folks.
G
Well,
I
can
go
through.
You
have
five
people
on
a
committee
usually
and
they're
getting
paid
like
planning
and
zoning
50
for
the
evening,
and
then
you
would
multiply
it
by
most
likely
10
because
they
don't
necessarily
meet
every
single
month.
I
think
on
average
they
probably
mean
about
10
times
a
year.
So
you
know.
A
It's
actually
I'm
sorry,
it
doesn't
show
it
that
way.
E
Well,
regardless,
my
point
is
that
with
so
many
people
that
do
so
much
for
this
community,
you
know
one
would
think
you
know
how
much
money
the
town
actually
pays
out
for
this
and
consider
the
idea
of
maybe
a
volunteer
appreciation.
Whether
the
council
takes
all
these
people
that
volunteer
their
time
each
month.
These
boards
and
committees
take
them
out
for
a
dinner,
a
volunteer
appreciation
night
or
something
like
that
and
eliminate.
E
I
know
we're
talking
huge
money
with
everything
else
here
tonight,
and
I
know
this
is
only
nickels
and
dimes
but,
like
my
grandfather
said
nickels
and
dimes
add
up
to
dollars
and
chipping
here
and
there
there's
you
know
something
to
consider
like
like
I
said,
I
had
no
idea
that
some
of
these
committees
and
council
boards
were
compensated
for
their
time
and
I
don't
want
to
take
anything
away
from
anybody,
jobs,
salaries
or
anything
like
that.
But
it's
something
to
consider.
We
do
have
some
great
volunteers
in
this
community.
A
A
Well,
it's
still
a
board
and
if
they
show
up
and
they
schedule
a
meeting,
we
just
got
to
confirm.
What's
going
on
with
that
boy,
okay,
all
of
a
sudden,
they
show
up
and
they
meet
and
have
a
discussion.
So
I
know
joe
machado
is
one
individual
who
serves
on
that
board.
He
lives
in
clyde
towers
he's
been
on
the
two
to
attend
meetings.
They.
A
That's
also
to
be
clear:
even
zoning
and
planning
am
I
correct.
Tracy
yeah
do
they
get
paid
if
they
don't
show
up.
A
I
G
D
E
I
A
B
I
spoke
with
ernie
about
that
over
the
weekend
and
because
most
of
that,
we're
looking
to
I'm
looking
for
that
for
the
enterprise
fund-
that
that's
something
we
can
talk
about
at
that
time,
because
I
wasn't
looking
for
that
to
come
out
of
the
operating
budget
so
because
both
budgets
are
intertwined,
which
is
still,
I
still
feel
difficult
to
deal
with.
B
I'm
looking
for
that
salary
to
come
out
of
the
civic
center
budget
and
to
oversee
the
animal
shelter
just
like
I
said
before,
but
we
had
talked
about
some
different
options
with
that,
but
I
don't
really
want
to
go
into.
I
didn't
bring
it
up,
because
I
don't
want
to
go
into
that
tonight.
B
It's
it's
something
for
when
we
get
the
civic
center
budget,
which
will
be
in
late
may
june.
Yes,
yes,.
F
A
C
19Th
trying
to
sort
through
too
much
but
that
well
the
quote,
was
something
like:
we
need
to
make
up
the
difference.
C
Anyway,
that
was
one
of
the
things
about.
We
have
to
make
up
the
difference
and
in
watching
the
may
2nd
civic
center
meeting
you,
president
gosling
commented
that
it's
basically
self-funding,
a
pretty
basic
budget
and
former
town
manager,
fred
presley,
indicated
that
the
surplus
would
go
into
the
cost
repayment
until
it's
paid
up
and
that
there
was
good
progress
being
made
there.
But
I
think
it's
still
about
140
000
dollar
deficit.
A
C
A
And
again,
that
was
something
else
that
came
out
of
the
rainy
day
fund
and
that
needs
to
be
slowly
paid
back.
It's
obviously,
you
can't
take
it
all
back
in
one
year,
because.
F
A
Some
improvements
that
need
to
go
on
up
there.
You
know,
especially
for
events.
You
know,
councilman
lachadi
used
it
one
year
for
the
east
egg
hunt
and
he
couldn't
get
any
audio
or
anything.
It
was
hard
to
yell.
So
our
sound
system
up
there,
you
know
people
have
talked
about
coming
in
and
possibly
doing,
concerts
or
whatever,
but
to
to
make
money.
You
got
to
spend
money,
so
you
gotta
make
some
improvements
up
there
at
that
point,
so
we
gotta
figure
out.
You
know
how
much
you're
gonna
pay
back.
A
C
A
It's
because
it's
an
enterprise
fund,
it's
kind
of
like
this,
even
though
the
sewer
budget's
coming
before
us
tomorrow.
It's
an
enterprise
fund
and
their
budget's
totally
separate
from
our
budget,
and
when
we
took
over
the
ice
rink
years
ago,
that
was
in
our
budget
and
when
it
was
in
the
red
at
times
it
was
in
the
red
half
a
million
dollars
and
that
money
would
come
out
of
this
budget
and
the
council
when
we
decided
to
take
it
back
and
not
privatize
it
again.
A
We
just
we
said
it
can't
cost
the
taxpayers
money,
it
needs
to
make
money,
it
needs
to
have
its
own
budget
and
not
let
this
budget
or
any
other
department
subsidize
for
that
department.
So
we
wanted
to
make
it
successful
and
in
2006
to
2089
I
forgot
when
we,
when
they
private,
when
did
they
privatize
that
eight
somewhere.
A
2006
2005
2006
budget,
when
I
first
came
in
it,
was
in
the
red,
400
200,
000,
300,
000
and
that
was
being
funded.
Then
the
council
decided
at
that
time
we're
going
to
try
to
privatize
it.
At
that
time
we
were
receiving
120
well,
the
first
contract.
It
was
about
40
000
a
year.
The
second
contract
was
125
000
a
year,
but
things
went
south
up
there.
The
town
had
to
take
it
over.
We
work
on
a
mothball
those
two
buildings,
the
from
march.
A
Actually,
I'm
sorry
stop.
From
october
november,
until
march
april,
the
field
house
is
utilized
by
soccer
softball,
whoever
it's
constantly
renting
basketball
and
then
in
the
hockey
rinks
always
busy.
I
mean
if
it
was
up
to
me.
I
put
a
second
hockey
rink
up
there.
We'd
have
no
problem
renting
out
the
ice.
We
have
people
begging
us
now
to
come
in.
We
should
have
more
hours.
We
just
don't
so
through
the
history
of
that.
C
Your
meeting
tomorrow
night
is
a
regular
council
meeting.
Yes,
and
I'm
aware
it's,
I
don't
know
what
time
it
is.
I
think.
A
It
starts
at
seven
tomorrow:
6
30
will
be
the
sewer
budget
meeting
regular
council
meeting
starts
at
second.
F
F
C
Do
because,
since
friday
or
on
friday,
the
human
resources
director
was
kind
enough
to
send
me
some
of
the
job
descriptions
and
it
relates
very
much
to
the
facilities
manager
thing.
C
So
maybe
what
I'll
do
tonight
is
leave
it
with
you,
like
you,
get
nothing
else
to
do
till
tomorrow
night
and
then
maybe
bring
it
up
for
discussion
at
that
time.
D
A
A
E
Total
appropriation
budget
is
97
15
190,
looking
at
3.2
of
the
levy
with
a
3.30
tax
increase
across
the
board.
A
A
A
Yeah,
I
have
it
just
so
what
I
asked
kristen
to
send
over,
because
we
have
an
tier
tax
system,
and
I
know
I
just.
A
A
So
what
I
asked
kristen
to
do
was
give
me
scenarios
at
percentage
of
tax,
increases,
six
family
and
above
so
I
had
three
different
scenarios:
one
percent
on
residential
one
percent
on
a
single
family
and
two
family
owner
occupied
and
one
percent
on
business,
and
then,
where
that
would
leave
the
rest,
I
I
don't
see
it
working
personally,
then.
I
also
ask
for
two
percent
two
percent
and
I'll
send
this
over
to
the
council.
A
So
if
we
went
one
percent
on
the
residential
primary
and
one
percent
on
the
businesses
that
would
put
three
family
and
above
at
nine
point,
seven,
five,
six
family
and
above
nine
point
seven
five
intangibles
at
nine
point:
seven
five.
Now
this
has
changed
a
little
bit
because
the
budget
dropped
by
a
quarter
percent.
A
Now
at
two
percent
it
would
be
two
percent
for
residential
two
percent
for
business
and
5.25
across
the
board
for
three
family,
four
family
and
six
family
above
or
you
have
the
option
of
3.22,
whatever
03
or
whatever
it
is
that
kristen
said
across
the
board.
A
I
will
say
the
first
one:
one
percent
puts
like
four
dollars
on
the
tax
rate
on
multi-family
homes.
You
know
so
you're,
seeing
you
know,
royal
mills
could
see
depending
on
what
the
valuation
is.
There
could
be
ex
extravagant
per
se.
A
Where
at
the
two
percent
it's
at
two
dollars
per
thousand
for
the
multi-family
six
family
and
above,
but
this
is
just
options
I'm
throwing
out
to
the
council,
I
just
have
kristen
run
those
numbers,
it's
whatever
I
mean,
and
personally
I
think
whatever
we
decide
on,
we
need
to
let
the
public
know
we
shouldn't.
I
know.
Normally
we
wait
till
after
the
budget
passes,
that
we
set
the
levy
and
set
the
set
the
rates.
I
think
we
should
have
the
rates
set
prior
to
and
we
go,
I
mean
well,
it
changes.
E
A
So
that's
my
question:
if
you
want
to
go
straight
across
the
board
equal
with
everybody,
or
if
you
want
to
lessen
the
burden
on
some
and
others,
I
don't
know,
we've
done
it
in
the
past
three
family
really
caught
it
three
three
four
years
ago
they
caught
a
25
tax
increase
because
their
rate
was
brought
up
to
the
same
as
a
six
family
which
rightfully
so
because
they
were
down
at
27
per
thousand
and
they
were
brought
up
to
37
dollars
per
thousand.
A
It
might
be
off
by
a
dollar,
but
it
definitely
was
brought
up
to
37.95
to
be
equal
with
the
other
six
family
and
a
ball.
So
those
are
options,
I'm
just
throwing
it
out
there.
If
you
want
to
look
at
them,
I
will
send
this
to
you
or
kristen
can
send
this
to
you.
You
can
look
at
that
and
you
can
determine
personally
at
this
point
I
mean
we're
fighting
over
a
thousand
dollars
here,
a
thousand
dollars
there.
A
I
personally
think
let
the
taxpayers
decide
at
this
point,
let
it
go
to
vote
and
if
they
voted
up,
they
voted
up
if
they
voted
down,
they
voted
down,
and
that's
just
my
opinion.
You
know,
I
think
personally,
you
know
we
get
up
here
and
we
start
bickering
and
get
upset
about
5,
000,
12,
000
and
really
our
big
picture
is
2
million,
7
million
5
million.
Whatever
you
guys
want
to
decide
the
dollar
amount
is
we
know
what
the
big
picture
is
we're
never
going
to
get
to
2
million.
A
As
I
said
earlier,
if
you
had
to
do
head
count
to
2
million
it's
20
to
26
positions,
I
don't
think
we
should
decimate
this
town
by
reducing
20
to
26
positions.
Absolutely
not
public
safety
would
be
affected
and
our
dpw,
our
maintenance
of
the
town,
our
assets,
it'll,
all
be
decimated.
I
think
it'd
be
crazy
to
do
something
like
that.
That's
just
again
my
opinion.
A
So
again
we're
going
to
be
voting
on
voting
on
the
budget
going
to
vote.
We're
not
voting
on
the
budget.
When
you're
voting
on
the
budget
you're
voting
on
the
budget
in
the
ballot
box
up
here
on
the
council,
you're
voting
to
let
the
voters
vote
so
that'll
be
on,
may
1st
meeting
to
vote
to
bring
it
to
the
taxpayers.
A
My
opinion,
I
think
everybody
did
their
due
diligence
as
much
as
they
possibly
could
without
getting
lawsuits
and
whatever
else,
and
let
the
taxpayers
decide.
F
Well
again,
this
this
has
been
a
long
process.
Certainly
the
council
spent
a
lot
of
time
reviewing
it
discussing
it
and
those
are
your
decisions
you've
given
us
the
opportunity
to
make
our
positions
and
our
recommendations
and
ultimately,
it's
up
to
you
as
elected
officials
as
to
what
the
budget
will
be
and
what's
brought
forward.
So
at
this
point
I
think
we
said
it
all
and
now
it's
time
to
process
this
and
move
it
forward.
A
This
has
probably
been
the
most
people,
I've
seen
in
the
crowd
any
budget
hearing.
So
thank
you
very
much.
All
in
favor
all
right
opposed
eyes.
Have
it
have
a
good
night.
