The  Ridgefield Budget Referendum is today.  The proposed spending plan on the municipal side, including debt service, is $47.4 million.  The proposed Board of Education budget is $106.6 million, a 4.24 percent increase.  More than half of the school spending is for salaries.  First Selectman Rudy Marconi says almost a third of the municipal budget is for public safety.  Recreation is about 16-percent of the budget, with the pandemic sending more people outside.  Another question on the ballot would be $1.6 million for road and ADA improvements.  Other capital item questions are also on the ballot, including funding for tennis, basketball and pickleball court replacement.  Voting is from 6am to 8pm in Yanity Gym.
