CLINTON -- The Board of Selectmen on Oct. 14 plan to conduct a public hearing on the seven special town meeting warrant articles to be voted on during the Nov. 4 presidential elections.
The public hearing will occur as part of the board's meeting at 6:30 p.m. in the selectmen's room of the Town Office at 27 Baker Street.
The Police Department's future is at stake on the Nov. 4 special town meeting warrant, which features seven articles. Twice residents have rejected budget increases for the department. This time, they will vote on a $175,206 budget that would keep the department afloat.
The department's proposed budget is the same amount that it received last year.
Earlier, the Budget Committee had recommended a $199,256 Police Department budget.
Voters also have defeated increased spending for inspectors, the health officer and a code-enforcement account. Article 3 asks for $17,190 -- the same appropriation as last year.
Article 4 asks a $35,000 transfer from savings to a capital-improvement account that would repair a failing 42-inch culvert on Hill Road.
The town would transfer $15,000 from savings to the general assistance account for fuel assistance if voters pass article 5.
