Preliminary Fiscal Year 2024 Operating and Capital Budget Recommendations

The budget process started in October with distribution of capital request forms to Town departments. In January, departments received instructions on submitting Fiscal Year 2024 operating budget requests and before the conclusion of February, all departments had met with the Finance Committee. At the outset of March, the Finance Committee reviewed a compiled list of FY24 budget requests, made minor recommendations and asked for clarification on a number of items. Further meetings resulted in the below budget proposal.
