Council and School Committee Clash Over $30,000 Funds
OLD ORCHARD BEACH The Town Council and the Superintending School Committee clashed over a $30,000 school appropriation after the committee skipped a joint meeting. The council sent a letter to the committee via town police, stating that bank constraints prevent borrowing the funds for current operating expenses and demanding a bi weekly budget for the next calendar year within around $100,000. The council cautioned against overdraft liability and asked for legal counsel to be present at the next town meeting. The committee unanimously accepted the letter and a Rep. Plante criticized the council for the financial crisis as a result of prior actions.
