Finance Committee Recommended "4M override" option for FY25: 

$76,194,099.11

This budget requires a $4 million override, does not need to use any "Free Cash" and provide these benefits to our town for FY25.   It restores services (compared to the 1% budget) for some departments, but not all (particularly School department where there is still a $1.75 Million shortfall):

• Police Department fully funded

• Fire department fully funded

• Library fully funded

• Parks & Rec fully funded

• Veterans fully funded

• Public Health Nurse mostly funded

• Highway department mostly funded

• Council on Aging mostly funded

• School department $1.75M shortfall
