A total of $12,869.24 in antirecession (Title II) funding was appropriated. The sum of $9,869.24 was approved for maintenance of town buildings and $3,000 for maintenance of town roads. Anti-recession funds must be used to continue ongo- ing projects and cannot be used to establish new projects or jobs. Selectman John Ryder said $7,000 has been allotted for Town Hall upkeep. Ryder hopes that town funds will not need to be appropriated for this purpose at the annual Town Meeting. Upkeep will probably include heating costs and repairs, some of which may be to the roof, it was Stated. The funding for the highway account will be used to replace $3,000 unexpectedly spent to repair flood damage earlier this year. Reimbursement from the state for the money spent on the flood damage is not expected until sometime next year. The money will be placed in the town’s general account. The vote on both articles was unanimous.
