Commented that Town of Andover has an excellent one. Don't think we should be writing a blank check for capital. Also, possible problem that citizens won't have a chance to vote on items they want and people might lose their right to referendum. Second week in October. Asking departments to give us priority list on requested items as well.
Projects are supposed to be part of political process, right of referendum is a political process.
This takes away right of people to challenge spending. The groundwork this committee can do is tremendous and long term. I trust the volunteer committee has the best intentions and it is not political. By-Law, with exception of 4.7 and 4.3. Possibly we can work on these two sections and bring this back at a later date.
