Friday, Nov. 7, I foiled and received all the contracts for employees of the Marlborough Central School District including: teachers, administrators, assistants, secretarial, etc. Also an itemized budget for 7/1/08-9/30/09. Sandy, Joanne, Maureen and I will examine them this weekend. We will announce our next meeting of the Marlborough Taxpayer's Association shortly. Note: there will the last chance for the public to comment on the Town of Marlborough budget this Monday, Nov.10th. (check for time).
Thank you Cindy for your comments.
