Three New Stabilization Accounts on Clarksburg Warrant
 |
Town meeting is Wednesday, May 18, beginning at 7 p.m. at the elementary school. The town election is on Tuesday from noon to 7 at the Senior Center.
Town officials are asking to take $50,000 from the school fund and put it aside in accounts for a police cruiser, Department of Public Works truck and the replacement of the Senior Center well.
The school fund was created to begin saving for a new building but there has been no movement in that direction. The fund has about $100,000 in it now.
Also on the 24-article warrant is a town budget of $1.03 million, up from $968,000 this year. The bulk of the increase, $40,000, is in higher insurance costs. The following article uses $30,000 from free cash to lower the tax rate.
Voters will also decide a school budget of $2.36 million and a McCann Technical School assessment of $183,000.
Also on the warrant is authorization to try again for a $500,000 state road grant to pave West Cross, Middle and Daniels roads, to buy a DPW truck, to institute a meals tax and to transfer the first of three $10,000 payments from the sewer fund to the general account.
There are no races in this year's election. On the ballot are incumbents Selectwoman Lily Kuzia, School Committee member Jeffrey Levanos, War Memorial Trustee Joseph Bushika III and Library Trustee Linda Hurlbut, all seeking three-year terms, and Moderator Bryan Tanner for a one-year term and Planning Board member Thomas Jammalo for a four-year term.
There are candidates for a five-year Planning Board seat, three-year Board of Health seat and for tree warden for one year.
