The Treasurer
The hat you put on when the town's debt is a claim on your future.
Debt a town takes on today is a bill your household pays for decades, whether or not you were watching when it was signed. Reserves, capital plans, the fiscal rules a town sets for itself — all public, all trackable, year over year.
Anyone wears this hat
A young family thinking twenty years out, a fixed-income retiree, anyone who wants to know what's already been promised on their behalf.
What it covers
Capital spending, reserves, and the fiscal rules a government sets for itself.
What your Chief of Staff does
Tracks debt service and reserve ratios year over year and flags the year the trend turns.
