Summary
The Board of Assessors presented and approved a FY2027 preliminary real-estate tax warrant covering six months totaling $10,416,142.32; members compared it to the prior year and asked staff to check details before certification.
Committee member (S3) presented the FY2027 preliminary real-estate warrant and read the amount into the record: “In the amount of $10,416,142.32.” The board discussed the figure in comparison to the previous year, with one member noting that last year’s figure was about $9.9 million.
Members confirmed that the warrant covered a six-month collection period and described the process of reviewing and signing the document. Committee member (S2) said the board should look it over before filing; the chair walked through procedural steps the assessor’s office follows to prepare the warrant for collection and certification. The motion to approve the FY2027 preliminary real-estate warrant was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote.
Board members also discussed how the warrant feeds into the town’s free-cash estimates and budget planning for the fall, and several members urged transparency in how free-cash projections are communicated to the public. The board requested staff present any reconciliation or supporting documentation at a future meeting.
