It was rejected by Hanson on the town hall floor therefore rejected. If the voters should happen to vote yes at the election then Hanson has to have another town
meeting to appropriate the money.

■■Hi Beth,
I checked the WHRSD website this morning before I emailed you and Jeff at 7:30 and there was
nothing about a re-vote. I see it posted there now. Had I known earlier today I would have made
arrangements to attend tonight's meeting.
I'm not sure why you are planning to revote. Unless there's something I am unaware of, you don't
have a rejected budget yet. You need the results of Hanson's May 18 ballot question vote before
you need to take any further action, and only if the ballot results are unfvorable to the school
budget.
If there is some information I do not have about the budget process please share it with
me. Otherwise I would respectfully request that you table any action on such a hugely important
decision until you actually have a rejected budget.
Thank you.
