Not sure where everyone went to school but I learned to read and write at the Templeton Center school.

According to the Webster's unabridged dictionary of the English Language,
on page 1872,

Stipend: 1. periodic payment - 2. fixed or regular pay; salary

the same dictionary on page 1693;

Salary: a fixed compensation periodically paid to a person for regular work or services.

So, if anyone with any indication of education wishes to make a silly argument about words that seems to have the same meaning, by all means, go for it. Payment is payment and the spending of taxpayer dollars is the spending of taxpayer dollars, be it by way of the word stipend, salary of free boots, which are not really free, they come from someone's money/pocket, as in the taxpayer, so again, play the word games while the Advisory Committee tries to get a clear open transparent accounting of the taxpayers monies while others try to see how much they can take.

Looking for information and answers, I contacted "someone from Templeton Town hall and this is what I got for answers!


Holly,

I am wondering if you have the latest project budget versus actual document for the elementary school? If is available electronically, that would be cool. 

Regards,
Jeff Bennett

Jeff:

I don’t have a specific project budget versus actual document, but I do have a rough copy spreadsheet with the amounts spent and reimbursements to the Town that was given to me when I started processing the reimbursements. I have not had the extra time to update it and enter all of the hard copies of payments and reimbursements that I have processed. I’m hoping to have some time to do that soon, but it may be a while-most likely after we get a Town Administrator and new assistant in place.

Good Day,
       Kate,

   I am wondering do you have the latest project budget versus actual for the Templeton new elementary school? If you do and it is available electronically, could you send that to me? If it is not, please advise me when i could pick up a paper copy.

respectfully;
Jeff Bennett


Hi Jeff,

I don’t not have any paperwork on the new school.  Maybe the selectmen’s office or the school.  If you are looking for general ledger information that would be Kelli.
