The board began reviewing the budget Tuesday evening and will hold another budget workshop Moiv day. May 25, at 4:30 p.m. Two council members, Mary KaUierine Griffith and Kathy Hill, both school teachers, were unable to attend Tuesday's budget workshop because they were at a school meeting. "We need the whole council here to decide what we need to give high priority to," said Councilman Ed Gore. Council member Mirmie Hunt the town’s finance officer, said the coun ty has raised the town’s base water rate from 94 cents to $1.20 per 1,000 gallons. “We're looking at raising the water rates and at a significant tax in crease," Ms. Hunt said.

According to Ms. Hunt, the town's water budget for the upcoming fiscal year shows an estimated income of $271,520.
