Yes, that was one major highlight of the long evening Monday 4/14/08.
After hearing and reviewing the school budget and the need for an override,
with two members not returning from a five minute break,
the eight remaining could not reach an agreement on two motions for an override,
both motions ended up being withdrawn,
which quickly lead to the motion to adjourn at approx 10:20 PM.
So the FINCOM has yet to vote a full budget (schedule to be determined).
The Town Council probably won't get the budget until their second meeting in May (at this rate).
Which cuts it almost impossible to schedule a town vote for an override before June 30th.
So as it stands the school budget voted is the level funded Town Administrator approved budget which is short $3.3 Million and will result in 45 folks going out the door in June to not return in September.
Oh, and the school committee has yet to vote on their final budget. That comes on April 29th.
more details and recordings to be made available as I have time to process them
