Town budget includes modest equipment and amenity purchases for maintenance, IT and parks
Summary
The draft FY2025–2026 budget lists $7,200 for three new computers and $25,000 for IT upgrades, $2,132 for maintenance tools, $2,519 for a picnic table and trash receptacle at Town Hall, and $450 for two dog waste stations.
The proposed IT budget sets aside $7,200 to replace three computers (with a planned rotation of three machines per year if needed) and an additional $25,000 for potential upgrades such as a camera system or Windows 11. Maintenance equipment requests were itemized as an edger ($464), a weed eater ($288), a hedge trimmer ($700), and a pressure washer ($680), totaling $2,132.
The building and grounds line includes a $1,500 picnic table and a $1,019 trash receptacle for Town Hall (intended for Food Truck Friday events), and the parks budget increased $450 to add two dog waste stations — one along River Road and one behind Cottle Park. Department heads presented these items and answered commissioner questions; no procurement decisions were made at the meeting.
