Article 5 proposed $375,000 for capital projects, including paving, plow gear and a dump body for a new wheeler, police reserve funds, and the second half of a townwide revaluation. Voters passed it 107-73.

And Article 6 sought $395,879 for debt service covering payments on municipal and sewer department loans, with sewer loans paid by users rather than through taxation. It passed by the biggest margin, 121-59.
