To the editor,
The City Council voting $21,000 for the matching funds part of a grant application by the Planning Department was a supplemental appropriation. The new city manager and lame duck council appropriated property tax dollars for yet another new purpose not listed in the MS-2 recorded with the N.H. Attorney General, Secretary of State and Department of Revenue Administration.
When was the public hearing? What is the source of the off-setting revenue. The FY 2010/2011 budged closed as of 30 June 2011. The FY 2011/2012 budget does not exist yet so how could any appropriation for any new purpose have taken place?
Arrogance give rise to tax increases.
