Agenda item#10 Budget 2006-07!

1. How much money has the town collected
for Adequate Facilities Taxes? On what kind
of items can the town use this money for? Is
it true not one penny of this tax can be spent
on general fund expenses?

for Impact Fees? If nothing has been collect-
ed when will town begin to charge develop-
ments impact fees? On what kind of items
can the town use this money for?

3. Can Nolensville impose & collect Impact
Fees on already approved developments? If
we can, when will we begin to impose and
collect Impact Fees on luxury homes like
Brittain Downs? Why did the town NOT IM-
POSE & COLLECT these fees before approv-
ing these developments?

4. When you (mayor) tell us revenues are
up over 300% are you talking about Adeq-
uate Facilities Taxes from new home develop-
ments? If that is what you mean...then is the
general budget 2005-06 ending on 7/1/06,
on target or are we behind? If so how much
& how are you going to pay for the deficit?

5. Where in the budget do you provide for
the town services for the 11 approved home
developments? Doesn't state require Plan of
Services? Can local citizens get a copy to
review? I.E. the plan of services for Burkitt
Place items#14?

6. Where in the budget do you provide for the
Volunteer Fire Dept.? Is this more money for
Fire Dept. than last year's budget? Is this
enough money to cover all new housing
developments?

7. Where in the budget do you provide for the
Police Dept.? Is this more than last year? Is
it enough money provide protection for all new
housing developments?

8. Where in the budget do you pay the
$7,000 to Mr. Lendermen to maintain town
website? Is this more or less than last year?
Can the mayor hire another service to do a
better job for less money and no conflict
of interest? CLICK HERE to see contract.
Too late to cancel contract (90 day notice)
so town pays another $3,500 for what???

9. Where in the budget is a detailed break-
down of entire town payroll from Mayor

million dollars. What do you project for
2006-07?

Traffic Lights ($80K ea.).New road realign-
ment for Rocky Fork around church to meet

12. Agenda #15 Reading of Resolution to
dedicate new Sam Donald Rd. How can this
be done when in last meeting Adoption of this
road was not approved? Has the town resolved
threaten lawsuit by Frank Wilson about new
Cemetery road flooding his land? New Sam
Donald feeds into the new Cemetery Road so
both roads are impacted? Wanna "dedicate"
