Selectboard reviews FY27 draft budget, increases York Hill Bridge estimate and budgets $7,000 for payroll/time system
Summary
The Selectboard reviewed the FY27 draft budget, noting a $5,000 upward adjustment to the York Hill Bridge line and a $7,000 allocation under professional services for a payroll/time-management system intended to improve grant tracking.
The board reviewed the FY27 draft budget and timeline. Town Administrator Trish Waugh said she increased the York Hill Bridge estimate by $5,000 to match a higher presentation figure rather than the scoping report amount she had originally used; she reported the highway budget "is now at 3.38" in the draft. The board asked Trish to follow up to clarify the differing cost figures for the York Hill Bridge.
Waugh also noted the budget includes $7,000 under professional services for a payroll and time-management system that was discussed previously; the system is intended to help with grant tracking and payroll oversight. Board members discussed opportunities for cooperative purchasing with other towns to reduce costs for common items and services.
