We are in the tail end of a very long boom cycle. We should not assume these results will continue to occur. The surplus should not be used as an invitation to increase spending.

Also, given the surplus, why has the town decided it's appropriate to charge residents for alarm monitoring??

Well at least they won't need to continue to try to steal tax revenue from the Fire District.
