FY03 Fees and Charges.
The approved FY03 budget assumed an increase in fees associated with the Planning Board and Building
Inspections Department to increase revenues by$93,500 and a corresponding fee revenue increase in the
Board of Health by$17,000. The Board of Selectmen are charged with setting fees for Building
Inspections, while the Planning Board and Board of Health are charged with setting their respective fees.
In addition,the FY03 budget provided for a$40,000 reduction in recycling expenses that would eliminate
Hazardous Material collection, white good collections,brush collection, etc. As an alternative to
eliminating these services completely,the Department of Public Works has developed a change in fees
that if adopted by the Board would provide sufficient revenue to maintain these services. The Board does
not need to make a final decision on these proposed changes in fees at this meeting. Instead, staff is
seeking feed back from the Board so final decisions can be made at the June 24, 2002 Board of Selectmen
Meeting.
Rosemary Smedile stated she hopes the Town is collecting all the fees due like "sign fees", Ms. Smedile
stated there is no point setting fees if we don't collect them.
James Xenakis made a MOTION, seconded by Susan Haltmaier,to adopt the Recycling Fee Adjustments
