REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
To the citizens of the town of Mendon:
We are incorporating into our report this year a new financial set up that will give you comparative costs for four previous years, with our recommendations for the year 1960.
We would remind you again that the Finance Com- mittee is only an advisory committee.
As a taxpayer you should be increasingly aware of town expenditures and that as you appropriate funds you are obligated to pay for them.
In the face of a 40% increase in our school budgets for 1960, we would remind all departments that they should be diligent, and considerate of the taxpayer, in spending money wisely, avoiding unnecessary frills and fancies.
Our meetings are open to the public at all times.
Under Article 16 of the Warrant we ask you to in- crease the Finance Committee to five members. We feel that it is vitally important for more people to become familiar with the overall expenditures of the town.
Respectfully submitted, JOSEPH TAYLOR ARTHUR WEIRSMA JOHN L. LUNDVALL Finance Committee
