Do you have a detailed plan as to how that much money will be spent on this project? 200K seems like a lot of money for the Moultonborough taxpayers to fund. Funding from other private sources and the Department of Environmental Services (DES) should be a big part of your plan. I think the tax payers will want to hear that you have pursued all avenues before you ask them to fund that much money.

Variable milfoil has been a growing problem throughout New England. Because it propagates so readily and spreads downstream, it is essential to take a comprehensive approach to eradicating it. Even though the state DES water division is involved in the process of developing environmentally-safe plans to control it, armies of volunteers, organized town by town or lake by lake are required to carry on the battle.
