Ray Chadwick for Myself BEDFORD Granite State Taxpayers supports efforts and legislation to promote awareness of the financial impact on taxpayers of spending and taxing options, to institute and defend tax cap legislation, and promote better public awareness of the impacts of proposed projects and ballot choices. This bill authorizes written applications for a petitioned article at an annual or special town or school board meeting to identify a primary petitioner who shall be granted the same amount of time to introduce a petitioned article as is granted to the governing body or budget committee to introduce their warrant articles. This promotes citizen access, and commitment, to the budget process. Granite State Taxpayers recommends a vote FOR HB228 Ray Chadwick, Board Member | BEDFORD | Support | 767 | Feb 27, 2025 | |
