Select Board and BRC chairs express confidence as budget season opens
Summary
Select Board Chair Nico Papaconstantis thanked BRC volunteers for expected work on department budgets, and BRC Chair Bob Kelly said the committee will review line items rather than set a target. The next BRC meeting is Sept. 30 in the Novak Room.
Select Board Chair Nico Papaconstantis and Budget Recommendations Committee Chair Bob Kelly both addressed the committee on Aug. 5, thanking volunteers and outlining the BRC’s approach as budget work begins. "The Select Board really relies on the hard work that you're going to be doing meeting with the different department heads and going through the budget," Papaconstantis said, expressing appreciation in advance for the committee’s work.
Bob Kelly, chairing the BRC, emphasized that the group evaluates departments and line items rather than imposing a target at the outset: "Our goal is not to set a target for what we want the budget to be. We sort of let each department and and division and even every line item sort of speak for itself and we debate it accordingly." The committee announced its next meeting for Sept. 30 in the Novak Room.
