Documents available for Town Meeting:
FY2023 EM Selectboard Budget
FY2023 Capital Plan Adopted by Selectboard
FY2023 EM Tax Rate Worksheet for Town Meeting
17 VSA 2651a Constables
As always, the education tax rates are a moving target at this time of year. We will update the tax rate worksheet with new projections as they are received. The rates listed in the town report and WCUUSD annual report were the best available at the time of publishing, but will almost certainly be outdated by town meeting. Regardless, the education rate environment is not set until late June. Any projections made in advance of the final legislative decisions are just that — good faith projections based on the information available at the time.
