Watched the January 9, 2019 board of selectmen meeting. 
Online documents show a transfer from intergovernmental to various departments.

shown sub-fund number for intergovernmental as 120-000-51-5600-0000. However, if you checked the expenditure report, you would find the sub-fund number is 120-000-56-5600-0000. You would also find that the town meeting article giving  authority or the funds to do this transfer is listed as article 18 of the May 2018 annual town meeting. That article created the stabilization fund within the sewer department. It was actually article 21 where these funds were appropriated. In stating you are being transparent, the information needs to be correct. Perhaps less time spent trying to manage the Advisory Committee and more time spent, discussing, checking facts and ensuring the information put forth is correct and honest would be time well spent.
