💬 Discussed Finance Committee · February 26, 2026

Debt exclusion vs. operational override discussion

Members debated funding options; majority favored a $2M operational override (a permanent tax increase) over a temporary debt exclusion as financially better for the town.
💰 $2M tax levy increase; snow/ice budget already -$300,000, blizzard costs may reach $500,000–$1M
Why this matters: Permanent property tax increase likely on the way
