Public comment: request for budgeted funding for health services

Public Comment

1:52 → 4:58(3m 6s)

A resident (speaker 5) asked why her request to add funding for local health agencies to the agenda was denied and urged transparent, consistent budget treatment for programs serving the young, elderly, disabled and disadvantaged. She asked the board to obligate former fund totals (about $7,000) in this year’s budget, criticized $1 placeholder entries for multiple agencies, and presented a worksheet claiming the town contributed $62,938 since 2017 and the programs returned about $1,339,928 in services. She asked the board to provide voters with clearer cost/benefit data.
