The committee’s vote supports asking voters to fund an additional $1,601,140 for the school budget, but the meeting did not finalize the town’s override or determine its election outcome. Without an override, the committee identified cuts and consequences and did not accept the projected budget as presented. The committee also approved a health-insurance opt-out plan that would allow eligible employees to receive $3,000 for individual coverage or $6,000 for family coverage after enrolling in the town plan for at least one year.
