CONWAY — The Municipal Budget Committee Wednesday voted to support the school district's budget by one vote despite pleas that the district's proposed spending is just too much for many residents to afford.

The budget committee held a public hearing on the budgets and warrant articles at Kennett High School on Wednesday. About a dozen people attended. Most were municipal or school staff. After the hearings, the budget committee voted whether not they support the budgets and articles as written.
