The committee's action recommends restoring funding for a Fleet mechanic while directing the remaining funds toward roadway work; it does not by itself finalize the town budget. Members also recommended $1,079,245 for Development and Inspectional Services and $1,565,456 for Solid Waste. The Solid Waste request anticipates a 6% increase as the town prepares to negotiate a new hauling contract and faces higher recycling processing costs.
