HARRISON — Residents on Tuesday voted by roughly a 2-1 ratio for a five-year road bond not to exceed $1.37 million.

The vote was 995-487.

The bond will pay for work on Dawes Hill, Deer Hill, Buck, Fogg, Town Farm and Maple Ridge roads.

Town Manager George “Bud” Finch previously said he is aware the town does not normally bond for projects, but doing so gives Harrison the ability to catch up on a number of roads in a short period of time. It also will bring long-range savings with the institution of the comprehensive road plan.

“The bond would be tax neutral, as funding for the road projects is already in the current proposed budget plans for the next five years,” he said.
