Are there other override proposals on the ballot?

The Select Board included one additional override question to add composting to Town solid waste pickup services for $1.85M, with an estimated additional $400k in revenue anticipated to be secured through a $75 program fee.  This question will appear on the ballot as an addition to the base override in a two-tier pyramid that will require passage of the base override in order for composting to be successful.
