Minetto limits town spending with new policy
Minetto adopts revisions to its procurement rules requiring board approval for purchases above set thresholds. Most departments face a 999 dollar limit per fiscal year, while the highway department can spend up to 5000 at a time and 20000 per year without prior consent. Town Supervisor David Domicolo says the changes aim to control spending while allowing emergency actions and greater public openness. He notes the town’s past fiscal stress and emphasizes cooperation across departments as a budget remains under pressure. Residents Caldwell and Falise comment on plow costs and ongoing efforts to curb spending and refurbishments to extend lifecycles.
