Highway Dept. Budget for 2017 (see page 35)

Budget List

In the official 2017 Highway Dept. budget, each line item (such as Drug Testing) has a budget code prefix such as 1-4311.10-390 HWY.

The following bar chart shows you at a glance how the Highway Dept. is spending your tax money. Two high-ticket line items were allowed to run way off the page so that the sizes of the other items could be clearly seen.

One obvious question one might ask is why the high amount for Salaries and Construction Services and why do we spend more on salaries than on road paving? The answer is that the Salaries line item is for five full-time employees, and the Construction Services line item is for road paving projects, underdrainage, and catch basin work.

For explanations of the line items, see the Highway Dept. Budget for 2017 on the town web site. For any questions or concerns, contact Road Agent Ron Pelissier at rpelissier@allenstownnh.gov.

NOTE
2017 total budget = $536,471; 2016 budget = $531,279; Difference = +$5,192 (+1%).

The largest expenses are for salaries and construction expenses, which means road maintenance and repaving. This budget also includes expenses for stormwater (SW) management.
