Ridgefield residents approved next year’s budget for referendum at the annual town meeting Saturday
without a single question.
According to Cynthia Bruno, the town’s Democratic Registrar of Voters, more than 80 people gathered under a tent at the Richard Venus Complex to hear presentations from the town’s boards regarding their respective budgets for the upcoming year.
Both the Board of Selectmen and Board of Education presented their proposals to attendants and were given the green light to move their spending plans to the May 11 referendum, which was originally scheduled for May 3. Last month, Ridgefield OK’d an amendment to the town charter to give residents more time to vote this year amid the coronavirus pandemic.
