MMTCTA List Serve					Back to List Serve Index

Posted by Tammy Getchell, Mapleton, Chapman, Castle Hill, January 11, 2006:I love how this listserve remains dormant for months and then one day, it comes alive with ten questions.  I'm adding.  What are your proposed cost of living increases this year?  The consumer price index is up there this year (around 4%)—I'm guessing because of the price of fuel. Are your increases going to match or even come close to this?

Responses: In Richmond we are looking at 2.5% to 3.0%. (Dave Peppard, Richmond)

3% here-Fryeburg (Phil Covelli, Fryeburg)

I WASN'T AWARE THAT THEY RELEASED THAT YET.  I THOUGHT IT CAME OUT THE THIRD WEEK OF THE MONTH?  WHAT IS THE WEBSITE TO GET THE CPI? I'VE BEEN TO THE DOL SITE.  (Scott Gesuldi, Rangeley)

Turner is requesting a 4% increase, Budget hearings are now under way, can not guess what their recommendation will be. (Eva Leavitt, Turner)
