GREENWOOD On Saturday, May 22 at 9 a.m. Greenwood will hold its annual town meeting at the Legion hall.
Both Selectman Arnie Jordan and Select Woman Amy Chapman are seeking re-election, with Jordan’s term for two years and Chapman’s for three. Jordan’s term expired last year, but since there was no annual meeting due to COVID-19, he remained on the board. Town Manager Kim Sparks said there are currently no challengers for either seat.
If all monetary articles are approved, the 2021-2022 municipal budget will be $1,349,189 compared to the 2019-2020 budget of $1,007,892.00 ( town operated 2020-2021 year on same budget as 2019-2020 because of no annual meeting last year). Most of the increases in this year’s proposed budget are for road improvements, with an additional $70,700 for work on the Richardson Hollow, Rowe Hill and Howe Hill Roads, and reserve accounts, with $205,000 being added.
