A citizen who attended the meeting said she has noticed that a lot of money is being sent from Washington to towns like Bolton, and that some towns are using a portion of their funds for parks and other programs to benefit the citizens. She requested that the Board use part of the Federal funds the town will receive, for the benefit of Bolton's youth and senior citizens.
