Winnipesaukee Forum - View Single Post - 5 Million Dollar Moultonboro Rec Center Proposal

Just to clarify, this major issue is no simply a $50,000 discussion and research project to keep folks in town busy! This was scheduled to be a 2008 warrant article for ballot vote.

Once again, the whole point of this project and wishes to spend town money on such a large capital project during a "recession". Weather you or the town father's want to admit or deny, the entire country as well as local economy is and has been in a recession. The housing market has been in a recession for over a year regardless of the sub-prime market. The recession is expected to continue for up to 18 months according to experts. Once again, the point as beancover said is that the huge tax rate and costs of living will fall on those year-round residents left behind currrently struggling for a roof over their head, food on the table and stable employment providing enough income to cover living expenses. Seasonal folks will come and go but the year round residents are forced to pay the bills year after year.
