				| How much notice does the public get to review the budget and try to make some sense of this? 
 Having a black or white approve not approve in not sufficient.
 
 I'm going to start attending the TC meetings.
 
 Not that they are not doinng a good job, hell I would hate to have thier job, but I think we need to get more involved in ensuring the committee is well aware of our concerns for the budget.
 
 My 2 cents

				| Go to the meetings! Get involved! 
 I will be regularly attending as well.
 
 Not to stir trouble but to show support, understand better, and offer suggestions when warranted.
 
 Need a little less complaining and a little more involvement in my opinion.
 
 Don't like something, present some solutions or alternatives.

 That would be great. When I talk with TC members new and old having lived here quite some time there has never been good attendance. I used to go, but the TC recently has given me no cause for concern. So I don't feel the need.
 
 The budget specific meetings are always open and advertised. I went once and it was like watching paint dry.  Every line is reviewed down to postage do they allot 1,000 or 750 for postage.  They have a summary meeting when presented and copies are in town hall for any resident to review. I find when interested that the summary meeting is useful.
