Swenson assigned to discuss the twice-yearly option with Sam York. School budget returning more than prior year. Cash flow impact on town and district not addressed in open session.
Official minutes confirm the item. Residents had no advance notice this budget process change would be considered. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/andover/select-board/2026-06-04/
At the June 4 Select Board meeting, members discussed changing how the town pays the school district, moving from monthly installments to twice-yearly payments. The topic was not on the published agenda, so residents could not prepare comments or review supporting data beforehand. Swenson was directed to contact Sam York about the schedule change. The board also noted interest in 10-year payment history but took no vote. Minutes show the item under discussion with no further public process outlined. Separately, the board accepted a winter sand quote from WunderX without a formal bid after the Highway Department report. That decision also was not listed in advance. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/andover/select-board/2026-06-04/ #MeetingWatch #AndoverNH
