Manchester plots a $25,598 budget adjustment after a voter directive to trim $29,557 from the 1973 selectmen budget. The plan includes $16,114 in real cuts and $9,404 in boosted income. The police department faces a $7,287 cut, with officials debating how to allocate $15,495 in federal revenue sharing funds and staffing changes. Porter proposes delaying hires to save $7,257 in salaries while expanding force to eight, subject to selectmen oversight and public accountability. Additional increases in income and several department cuts shape the proposal going to April 3.
