Belmont BOS is upset because they are almost certain that we will vote down our budget again this year. But we have no real cuts.
Our "conservatives" are trying to convince us otherwise.
I wonder then if the town of Meredith is hoping the Girl Scout camp on Meredith Neck does in fact get sold as opposed to staying as a camp. I recall the project was talking about 8 to 10 new homes with a value of upwards of $10 million each. That would raise some ~$1 million dollars in additional taxes as I suspect they get nothing now from the Girl Scouts. I guess you can't have it both ways.
