📰 News we're reading
• Select Board, budget committee met jointly to discuss Goffstown finances (unionleader.com) — Goffstown officials have kicked off budget season after voters rejected the proposed 2026 budget, leaving the town operating on a leaner default plan that already forced cuts like canceling National Night Out and freezing non-union raises. The Select Board and budget committee are now targeting a 5–7% increase, eyeing capital needs such as police station upgrades while preparing for likely hikes in local education and county tax portions.
