The Budget Committee voted to recommend Version 1 of Article 3, which would authorize the town to borrow a sum not to exceed $65,662.50 for purchase of a fire department vehicle. Dr. August Murray moved the motion and Michael Creighton seconded; the motion carried. The transcript records the recommended dollar cap but does not include a formal vote tally.
Committee members discussed the choice between a traditional special-article borrowing request and an alternative version that would reference capital planning; the committee selected the traditional Article 3 format for voters to consider. The recommended article will be forwarded to the Selectboard for placement on the town ballot or warning as appropriate.
