*Southborough Access Media will broadcast the Planning Board meeting live on Verizon-37 and Charter-192. Click here to see this week’s schedule with rebroadcast times. (Videos are also usually made available through their YouTube channel by the following morning.)

I’m waiting on confirmation that they will also be recording the School Committee meeting for a delayed broadcast.

Updated (1/7/19 1:27 pm): I fixed the link for the School Committee agenda. Following up on a commenter’s question, here is a link to the presentation made in December for the recommended budget. (I haven’t had a chance to view the discussion to see if it was approved as presented or any changes were made.)

Agenda link for School Committee does not appear to work.

Also, is the approved budget published anywhere? Is this for current year (the one approved at TM)?

Thanks!

I thought the last BOS meeting ended with a discussion about a follow-up BOS meeting to be scheduled on 1/10 to review desired budget levels with the various town departments.
Surprised to not see it listed here or on town web site. Maybe the information won’t be ready?
or maybe I misunderstood and that wouldn’t be a publicly posted meeting?
