Lyme Parish Nurse program asks town for larger appropriation
Summary
Nora Gould asked the Budget Committee to increase the Lyme Parish Nurse program appropriation to $14,000, noting the free service is funded only by fundraising and donations. The committee heard the request but took no vote at the meeting.
Nora Gould, speaking for the Lyme Parish Nurse program, asked the Town of Lyme Budget Committee on Oct. 29 to increase the program’s town appropriation to $14,000. She told the committee the service is provided free to residents and is supported solely by fundraising and donations.
The request was made as an appropriation presentation; committee members heard the proposal but no formal vote or decision on the appropriation was recorded at the meeting. Committee members present included Chair Richard Jones and members Judy Brotman, Phil Kinsler, Rich Brown, Bill Malcolm and others.
If the committee takes the request up for a future warrant or budget vote, the presentation indicated the program would rely on the increased town appropriation rather than a change in its fundraising model. No specific spending line items or additional funding sources were provided in the presentation.
