People felt that they had been hijacked by Sandwich.

It will be interesting to see if Moultonborough taxpayers will allow a similar situation. I have checked out the Budget Committee report and it makes a very strong case for turning down the teachers contract and the budget. Looks as though the teachers, the administration and the school board have no idea of economic conditions and simply think they can stick it to the taxpayers.
Just wondering how a school district's final budget is decided?

Do the voters in Sandwich have the last say?

Can the voters in M'boro* amend the motions made by Sandwich?

*This should read "Meredith" - sorry!!!!
