Stratford Town Resume of Annual Budget Hearing Tonight
The Stratford Town Council meets at 7 30 tonight in Wooster junior high auditorium for a public hearing on a 5 762 506 46 dollar budget submitted by Town Manager Flood. Council aims to finish in one session as flood trimmed requests to a proposed 32 mill tax rate up 1 7 mills from this year. The school board chair says the education budget will take under an hour to present with only 19000 dollars allocated to non salary items. Other departments seek about 25 000 more than the current year, mostly for salaries, with a six percent raise proposed for all town employees. Property deeds filed show several transfers including Williams to Throp and Fredericks, Basso to Halcomb, and Williams to Veremean.
