From the minutes
“Motion by the Finance Commission to Reduce following and move to the Town Council Reserve Reduce Grants Sal. From $47,500 to $23,750 -($23,750) Discussion Councilor Christopher respectfully opposes this as the town has been fighting for a Planner and would go with the Town Managers recommendation Town Manager reports that the town has wanted a Planner and Grants Manager since he began his roll as Town Manager, intent is not to add a position but to shift funds to give the town what he thought they wanted. He is trying to consolidate funding "in house" to work with what the community wants. This could free up money for town if it has a grants manager Councilor Flockhart feels planner roll is very important Councilor Ruggiero is for the 6 mos.
