According to the meeting record, "Residents will have to pay $15 per vehicle and the Town will cover the remainder of the fees." The Town indicated it will cover the Towns portion of the per-vehicle cost to participate in the regional event.
TA Tucker noted a prior Spring HHW Day in Portsmouth billed $204.80 per car and the Town paid almost $8,000 for 39 cars; she said Greenland hopes the Exeter event will save costs by sharing services among five or six participating towns and dividing costs by population.
