snow pile along RT 140 |
From the Town Council meeting on Weds, they did take steps to authorize spending additional money for snow removal if required.
4. Resolution 13-11:Authorization to Expend Funds in Excess of Available Appropriations motion to approve, 9-0 via roll call
standard request for coverage of the snow and ice during winter, likely to get to it spent approx $700K against the $900K budget
Given the length of the storm and current costs of snow removal, this was a timely move. It is likely that the budget was exceeded with this recent storm. In January, the DPW updated their presentation on snow removal and you can find that here
