Taxpayers who attended their town meeting were able to cut Grafton’s budget by 10% at the deliberative session.
A vote to cut it by 20% failed by one vote.
The full vote will be taken at the regular town meeting in March.
This underscores the importance of attending your town’s deliberative sessions and town meetings/votes in New Hampshire.
On another note, Grafton has one of the two of the ten NH sheriffs who have pledged to stand by the citizens right to keep and bear arms in the face of federal gun control laws or confiscation schemes.
