Dalton Select Board Approves Several Budget Items

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
DALTON, Mass. — During its meeting last week, the Select Board tentatively approved several budgets, addressing both increases and reductions 
 
The sealer of weights and measures budget is anticipated to double. The board approved an increase of $800, bringing it to $1,600. 
 
"We started with a $500 contract with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, which allowed us to bring the budget down from $7,000 which had included equipment that we would have had to have bought," Town Manager Tom Hutcheson said. 
 
"But that was an initial figure given by the Commonwealth with the understanding that it would go up if they discovered if there was a need to calibrate more instruments in the town than we had previously been doing, that was in fact the case." 
 
The board approved the Cultural Activities budget, which has a $500 increase, bringing it to $7,500.
 
In 2023, $7,300 of Dalton Day expenses were covered by American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds, also known as the COVID-19 Stimulus Package
 
Last year, Dalton Day was paid for using $4,500 from the budget, $1,750 from sponsorships, and $3,249.50 from ARPA.
