Recommendation: | As an elected official we are sometimes faced with hard decisions and I am not one to shy away from them, but this decision affects 14% of our annual general fund budget and can reduce services, increases taxes or cause the Town to take on debt. Based on the large financial impact to the town, I believe the taxpayers should have a voice in the decision process. I am requesting for a Non-Binding Straw ballot question to be placed on the November 8, 2016 General Election addressing the payment of legal fees to Mayor Pizzi incurred during his criminal defense.
On a separate motion, I would like to discuss with my colleagues the wording of the ballot question if the item is approved.
Fiscal Impact: Small |
