Budget Planning and Approval Process
The FY23 School Budget proposal presented here is the product of many weeks of analysis, review, discussion and prioritization. The public portion of this year’s budget development process has now begun, starting with two School Board/Leadership Council workshop sessions leading up to the School Board’s First Reading on March 17, the presentation of the full Municipal Budget on March 30, and the Town Council's first reading on April 6. As the budget process moves forward, additional documents and information will be posted here to help our community stay engaged and informed.
