Between Town Council work sessions on the Fiscal Year 2022 budget, the Finance Department found some savings, which the Council took advantage of by increasing funding for two organizations in the Community Support category: Block Island Health Services, which operates the Medical Center, and the BI Volunteer Fire Department.
At the Monday, March 29 meeting, Town Manager Maryanne Crawford read from a memo by Finance Director Amy Land updating previous figures. The Block Island Chamber of Commerce joined the School, BI Health Services, and the Fire Department on the call in hopes of receiving additional funding.
