5 <br /> Finance Committee <br /> Minutes <br /> March 19, 2020 <br /> Continue discussion and votes on the May 4, 2020 Town Meeting Warrant: <br /> Annual Town Meeting Warrant: <br /> Article 2 Omnibus Budget: <br /> The Finance Committee has reviewed and supported each line item of the Town Manager's <br /> Recommended FY 2021 budget with the exception of the DNR Expense budget, Line item 33. <br /> There was a debate whether to Hold the recommendation of Article 2 to the night of Town <br /> Meeting or to approve the budget as written making comment on Line item 33 on the night of the <br /> Annual Town Meeting. <br /> Pros to approving the Town Manager's Recommended FY 2021 budget would provide <br /> consistency with the Board of Selectmen and notification to the citizens that the budget has been <br /> supported by the Finance Committee. The Board of Selectmen is expected to execute the Town <br /> Meeting Warrant on Monday, March 23, 2020. To adhere to posting deadlines,the warrant is <br /> posted with the Town Clerk and published in the Enterprise on April 3, 2020. It was argued the <br /> warrant should go to print with a recommendation from the Finance Committee. <br /> The Finance Committee remained firm with their,decision to hold the line item until further <br /> information regarding the proposed expenditures is received. It was noted the Finance <br /> Committee previously voted on ATM Article 2 by a vote of 6-0 pending Line Item 33. This <br /> essentially places the entire budget on hold. <br /> Motion made by Mr. Pettengill to recommend that Line item 33 be reduced by $42,000, the <br /> amount of the STM Article 10, to $90,840. <br /> Motion seconded by Mr. McKelvey. <br /> Discussion followed regarding the actual number of STM Article 10 that has not been <br /> determined. <br /> Motion made by Mr. Pettengill to rescind the motion. <br /> Motion seconded by Mr. McKelvey to rescind. <br /> VOTE: No action. <br /> It was agreed the Finance Committee would meet next week to consider approving the amount of <br /> STM Article 10 to be deducted from ATM Article 2, Line item 33. <br /> There was also a question regarding the wording of the warrant which states: as shown in the <br /> column entitled (FY 2021 Department Request" (See Omnibus Budget). The FY 2021 <br /> Department Request is 61,149,317. The FY 2021 Town Manager Recommendation is <br /> $60,401,047. The difference is $748,270. There is a misperception of correctness regarding the <br /> wording of the article as the Town Managers Recommendation is what is voted upon. As a <br /> result it was recommended this article be Held for clarification. <br />
