...if you don't like how things are run - get involved...

You don't have to be a voting-resident to have a say in how a municipality budgets or makes budgeting decisions. NH has one of the best Right to Know laws as any state. Public meetings allow for the public to have a chance to speak. Public hearings are held for the public to address a board or committee, whether it's a governing body or an advisory committee, on the issues that matter to them. Public meetings and hearings both have to be posted in two places in a town - one of those places can be the town's website or the school's website - and generally at the town hall, post office, school district's office, or local library. As for public hearings, they're generally also posted in the local newspaper (but they don't have to be...) It's not hard to see who's meeting when and where - and you can be a part of the process.
