The increase is driven by expenses related to the district s plan to build a new fire station on Main Street (Route 2) The bottom line for the district would go up by just less than $60,000 if approved at the annual fire district meeting on May 25. That represents an increase of 10.6 percent over the current year s spending plan of $565,865. Wednesday marked the second time the committee has reviewed the budget proposal, which it will see one more time on May 5 before finalizing the warrant for the annual meeting. At this meeting, the five-member panel decided to use $25,000 from free cash toward an expected $105,000 FY22 expense for the owner s project manager it hired for the building project. That means residents who attend the annual meeting will be asked to pass an $80,000 warrant article toward that expense.
