Summary

After discovering envelopes for demand excise bills were misrouted to Georgia, Blandford decided to accept the total printed on demand bills as of April 2, 2026 and to stop charging interest after that date; demand bills were mailed March 19, 2026 and included a $30 fee.

Town Administrator C. Ferrera told the Board that demand excise bills were mailed March 19, 2026 with a $30 demand fee and interest calculated through April 2, 2026. Because some envelopes were initially sent to Georgia in error, the Town decided to accept the total amount printed on the demand bill as of April 2, 2026 and not to assess interest accruing after that date.

The minutes do not record a separate motion to formalize the adjustment; the decision was presented as part of the Town Administrator’s report. Residents with affected bills will see the adjusted treatment noted on their demand excise statements, according to the minutes.
