Wayland Student Press Network 1/18/10: School Committee announces “restore list,” approves budget. Thursday’s School Committee meeting brought unexpected good news and a unanimous approval in the final budget vote. Utility cost savings, revenue from the local options meals tax passed at special Town Meeting in November, and $150,000 in unexpected growth combined to give the town about $300,000 more than expected to work with for next year’s budget, the Finance Committee announced at its Monday meeting. $210,000 of that money was made available for use in the school budget. The School Committee said at its Monday meeting that a further $9,000 can be added to the school budget because of increased offsets for transportation. The town, then, had $219,000 Tuesday morning to use to reduce the original proposed school budget cuts.
