[Article 40, voted in the affirmative 3-9-1999 by the Annual Town Meeting, reads as
follows: "Shall we adopt the provisions of RSA 79-A:25-a to account
for revenues received from the land use change tax in a fund separate
from the general fund? Any surplus remaining in the land use change
tax fund shall not be part of the general fund until such time as
the legislative body shall have had the opportunity at an annual meeting
to vote to appropriate a specific amount from the land use change
tax fund for any purpose not prohibited by the laws or by the constitution
of this state. After an annual meeting any unappropriated balance
of the land use change tax revenue received during the prior fiscal
year shall be recognized as general fund revenue for the current fiscal
year."]
