HomeMy WebLinkAbout1972Advisory Committee Report obli¢ REPORT OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE TOWN MEETING MARCH, 1972 VOTERS OF NORTH ANDOVER: Increased personnel, cost of living pay increases, negotiated school salaries and costly debt redemption are apparent in budget requests for 1972. Budgets submitted amounted to $6,395,117, a 28% increase over $4,981,240 expended in 1971. After careful review our Committee reduced these requests by approx- imately 2 1/2%. Non-budget articles submitted amounted to $1,432,591. Considering the large increase in budget necessities we have recommended that $664,468 is the most we can afford for capital expenditures. Even with the reductions we have made, it appears that the increase in the tax rate will be approximately $11.00. Therefore we strongly recommend that you, the voters of North Andover, support the action of our Committee. 1972 BUDGET (Excluding Debt Redemption) Category School Department Fire Department Police Department Employee Benefits Highway Department Public Works General Administration Rubbish Disposal % Category % 54.24 Insurance 1.85 9.01 Library 1.48 7.15 Tree Department 1.29 5.11 Lighting 1.2 5.02 Veterans' Benefits 1.09 4.63 Recreation .93 3.5 Public Health .8 2.08 Miscellaneous .62 100.00% Respectfully submitted, NORTH ANDOVER ADVISORY COMMITTEE Mrs. Daniel F.
