Budget
No review of the budget was conducted at this meeting as the members did
not have access to the previous month expenditures.
There was a short discussion of ways to present a case to the town council
for more money to be appropriated to the parks budget. Edwin was wondering if
detailed records demonstrating actual man hours spent and receipts relating to
expenditures on parks properties would shed any light on actual costs of
maintaining properties belonging to the parks. There is concern from the Parks
Board that the true costs are never fully accounted for during the year. The
amount allotted in the 2006 budget seems very inadequate. This will be an
ever-increasing problem as more properties may come under the jurisdiction of
the Parks Board. The new shelter house being built in the former skate park area
and the town entrances at either end of the highway split are examples of
properties that could pose additional long term maintenance costs for the Parks
budget.
