Citizen’s Budget Workshop
A second opportunity for
residents to learn more about the budget process will be
held on Tuesday, January 30, 2007 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00
p.m. in the Town Hall Council Chambers. Similar to the
first budget workshop, Dr. Feser and I will present
information on how we formulate our proposed budgets,
including the challenges faced when prioritizing budget
allocations.
The workshop is held in an
informal setting and will also include an opportunity for
participants to contribute their thoughts and ideas in a
discussion regarding the goals and challenges of preparing
the fiscal year 2008 budget.

There’s a lot to do in Windsor
Copies of
the winter edition of There’s a lot to do in Windsor
were delivered to residents during the last week of December
with the Reminder Community Newspaper. In addition
to January through April programs and activities, this issue
includes the Citizen’s Guide to Windsor’s Town Budget
– basic information about the budget process. Extra copies
of the brochure are available at all town facilities or by

Annual Holiday Toy Drive
The Annual Holiday Toy Drive
was held on December 9th and 10th at
the Public Safety Complex. Numerous new toys and $1,500
were collected during the drive.
On December 15, volunteers
from Trinity Methodist Church, the Town of Windsor, School
Family Resource Centers, Emergency Medical Services and the
community distributed the toys to 115 families. The gifts
were warmly received by 253 children.
In addition to all of the
toy distribution volunteers, we would like to thank the
Windsor residents, Chamber of Commerce and local businesses
that made donations to this year’s successful toy drive.

opportunities lie ahead. It is also a good opportunity to

all of our community partners, volunteers and citizens who
help make Windsor the best it can be.
