Selectmen Meetings Update & Legislators’ Office Hours
Dear Educate Hopkinton Subscriber –
The town budget process for FY10 is already underway. The Selectmen voted 4-1 on February 7 not to consider an override for the FY10 budget. They are currently considering whether to take the annual 2 1/2% allowed by the state. It is always appropriate to e-mail the Selectmen and/or School Committee and let them know your thoughts regarding the options available.
In addition, Senator Karen Spilka will be holding office hours in Hopkinton on Friday, 2/13 at 10 am at the Hopkinton Town Hall. Representative Carolyn Dykema will be holding office hours in Hopkinton on 2/23 at 9 am at the Hopkinton Gourmet. Please stop by and ask your questions or share your thoughts regarding the state budget and implications for Hopkinton.
