SHOREHAM — Shoreham residents at their town meeting endorsed all the money items on their warning, including a fiscal year 2019 highway budget of $752,939 that reflects an almost $75,000 increase compared to this year.
The increase was associated with ramping up a part-time highway department position to full-time, elevating road crew salaries to the regional average, and the inclusion in the budget of a $40,000 local match for a state grant to repair Shacksboro Road.
Residents also overwhelmingly endorsed a fiscal year 2019 town budget of $310,652.
