## Summary

The Town Council meeting and subsequent public hearing on June 6th will focus primarily on the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget. Discussions will cover a range of municipal services, including public safety, infrastructure improvements like road maintenance, and investments in parks and recreation. Council members will also review minutes from the previous meeting, addressing any outstanding action items and providing updates on ongoing projects.

A key element of the evening will be the public hearing for the recommended FY 24-25 budget. Residents are encouraged to attend and share their feedback on the proposed spending plan, which will directly impact local taxes and the delivery of essential services. The Council will be considering final approval of the budget following this public input period, so understanding the key allocations is important for anyone interested in local government finances.

This year's budget includes a proposal to allocate additional funds towards improving pedestrian safety near local schools. Council will discuss the specifics of this initiative, including potential locations for crosswalk improvements and traffic calming measures. Residents who live near schools or are concerned about pedestrian safety should pay particular attention to this portion of the meeting.
