Needham cuts, avoids one tax increase...

But another one is still possible, according to this article in Globe West.

By cutting about $2 million from requests for fiscal year 2009, Needham officials say, they have avoided the need for an additional override of the state's Proposition 2 1/2 property-tax law to balance the town's operating budget. But residents may still face a tax-increase proposal this fall to fund staffing and other costs at the renovated High Rock School. And both Selectman John Cogswell and school Superintendent Daniel Gutekanst see another possible override proposal as early as fiscal year 2010.
