The Town Board of Clinton voted to adopt the town budget for fiscal year 2026 on a motion introduced during its November meeting. Supervisor (S3) moved to approve Resolution No. 45 of 2025, "adopting a budget for the fiscal year commencing 01/01/2026 and ending 12/31/2026," the motion was seconded and the board approved the resolution.
The board said the budget followed a series of workshops. "We've had multiple workshops," Supervisor (S3) said before calling for a vote. After the vote Supervisor (S3) said the motion carried.
The meeting also included related fiscal actions: the board authorized the Town Clerk to advertise sealed bids for highway materials with bids due by 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 2 and awards to be made at the Dec. 8 meeting; and the board approved November warrant vouchers covering the general, highway and capital funds. The sealed-bids authorization sets the procurement timeline and requires award to the lowest responsible bidders whose bids conform to the notice.
Other consent items approved alongside the budget included seasonal on-call staff appointments and the appointment of a constable. The board approved the appointment of Roberta Grant, Kenneth Wallace and Connor Burns as on-call wing persons effective Nov. 11–Dec. 31, 2025, at $16.80 per hour, and appointed James Miller as constable with an effective date and pay rate noted in the record.
The board set its December regular meeting for Monday, Dec. 8, 2025 to avoid a scheduling conflict and approved routine warrants totaling the amounts recorded in the official vouchers.
The board adjourned after hearing public comment and returning to the regular order of business. No further fiscal actions were taken at that meeting.
