*Note: The Richie McFarland Center merged with Waypoint but continues with the services provided, so the donations that were previously separated were merged into the one larger payment to Waypoint.
What it means: Each of the listed agencies will receive a donation from the town in the noted amount. The funds raised and donated last year are provided for comparison. This is an “all or none” Warrant Article. If the Article passes, all the listed agencies receive the specified donations. If it fails, none do.
No one spoke for or against this Article at the Deliberative Session.
Fiscal impact: Cost per thousand dollars of valuation is $0.049. A household valued at $400,000 will see a tax cost of $19.60 in 2023. A similar Article was passed last year, and was part of your tax calculation. This year’s number is roughly the same, so the increase over your tax bill from last year would be negligible if this Article is passed. Of course, if the Article is defeated, there would be a savings compared to last year’s tax bill.
