I was at a budget committee meeting last night and verified that
no, they do not have to advise on warrant articles that do not have a fiscal impact (aka "special warrant articles). I have confirmed this from representatives from two towns (Alton and Barnstead). Also see RSA 40:13, V. It would make NO SENSE for them to advise on non-budget related items - I can't imagine why anyone would think that was logical. The link you provided does not have any warrant articles that do not have a fiscal impact, as best I can tell (I didn't study it - it was a huge document.) The only thing that changed last year was the placement of vote counts on the warrants from the BOS or School Board and the Budget Committee.

It sounds like there's a great grassroots effort to fix this very dangerous situation.
REDSOXLVR - Any chance that developer would be willing to share his findings from the road study? Depending on how old it is, it might be fodder for your argument on why the road is dangerous and needs to be re-engineered. It would be in his benefit to share his information - it might help him in his cause for the new development.
