Seymour residents on Tuesday will get a chance to decide whether to spend about $837,000 on new equipment for the police department and public works department.
The town will hold a Special Town Meeting at 7 p.m. on Oct. 18, at Town Hall, to discuss the proposed purchases.
Any Seymour resident can vote at the meeting.
The money would fund three different purchases. Residents will vote on each one separately.
- $497,000 for an emergency communications console at the Police Department.
- $160,000 for a pay-loader at the Public Works Department.
- $180,000 for a dump truck for the Public Works Department.
If the public approves these items, First Selectman Paul Roy said it will be up to the Board of Selectmen to find a way to finance the purchases.
The agenda for the meeting is posted below:
