Summary
The Town of Otisfield Select Board approved recommended pay increases for fiscal year 2027 and scheduled a public hearing on the FY2027 budget for May 28, 2026 at 7:00 p.m., the board recorded in its May 7 meeting minutes.
The Town of Otisfield Select Board approved pay increases for fiscal year 2027 and confirmed a public hearing on the full FY2027 budget for May 28, 2026, the board’s minutes show.
A motion recorded in the minutes as "Motion to accept pay increases for FY 2027 as presented" was entered with the notation "AP/FB-unanimous," and the minutes indicate the action passed unanimously. The meeting attendance list shows Chairman Hal Ferguson, Selectwoman Anne Pastore, Frank "Buddy" Blauvelt Jr., Selectman Brendan Bedell and Administrative Assistant Julie Ward were present; Selectman Rick Micklon was absent.
The board discussed the FY2027 budget during the meeting and set a public hearing for May 28, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. to present the proposed budget to the public and receive comment. No executive session was held during the May 7 meeting. The board adjourned at 7:55 p.m.
The minutes do not specify which member formally moved or seconded the pay-increase motion beyond the shorthand "AP/FB" recorded in the minutes; the record lists the motion as unanimous and does not give a roll-call of individual votes in the text beyond that notation. The public hearing remains the next scheduled step for public review of the FY2027 budget.
