Tonight’s Town Council meeting will include a preliminary public hearing about the 2010-2011 budget. Citizens will have a chance to discuss the programs or projects they feel should be included in the proposed budget.

For many residents right now, that probably includes keeping the Southeast Regional Library open.

The Council meets at 7 p.m. in the Town Council Meeting Room. (The town confirmed this afternoon that the meeting is still being held.)
