NH Town Special Meetings

[longislander]

Time for this nonsense

Which nonsense?

The recreation folks, who want to have taxpayers pay for recreation in a region renown for free recreation activity? The taxpayers who don't want to fund a free babysitting service via the Rec. Dept.? Another gym? Two and half gyms are not enough for less than 500 "kids" in the schools? The programs for grades 1,2,3, sports that taxpayers have to pay for?

Maybe another petition to eliminate the Recreation Department is what is needed. They put in for another budget of over $300,000 and thank goodness the TA cut it back to $275,000.

Maybe a different thread is needed. This one is fixing the town property bought almost 10 years ago and salvaging value for the taxpayers.

I think the plural of nonsense is nonsense, so I was referring to all of the above. I wasn't intending on diverting the attention of how to fix a screw up of buying the Lions Club in the first place. Back to the regularly scheduled program.

There are many more. Stipulate them. Nonsense is in the eyes of the beholder!

Looking forward to continuing this later. Heading out for breakfast.

I think the wording on these is a bit confusing. The special vote is only to see if the town will form a committee for both locations, correct? So if they pass the committee forms and comes up with a proposal that would then have a funding request attached. That request would then be voted on at town meeting?

You can try to spin this however you wish but this petition and the out of schedule and costly by the way, town meeting is a Trojan horse for the Very costly and hardly needed Rec center.

Do not be fooled.
