Weston budget transfers stall; litigation costs ran past budget
Jack Beckett·
Weston's year-end budget transfers failed for lack of a second on October 1, after Selectwoman Lauren Traum objected to how some of the money was spent. The budget shows $337,315 spent on litigation, against $150,000 originally budgeted and $295,000 after a mid-year increase. The selectmen also appointed a public works director and set an October 15 town meeting.
Weston's middle school plan points to a November 2027 vote, with Hartford first
Jack Beckett·
Weston's three boards are working toward a referendum on a new middle school on November 2, 2027. The draft plan asks the state legislature for a better reimbursement rate first, and the school board chair wants the town to hire help to get it. No board voted on the plan or the schedule at the September 24 meeting.
