The Newbury Selectboard on July 29 approved a local agreement rate of 0.0075 for the 2026 education tax following the Town Treasurer’s recommendation. The board said the rate is intended to offset the veteran’s exemption and taxes waived for the Atkinson residence; the motion was made by Selectboard member Shauna Prime and seconded by Andrew Lee.
The Board’s action was recorded without a roll-call tally in the minutes. The decision was presented as a staff recommendation from the Treasurer and will be reflected in the town’s tax computations for 2026. (Provenance: SEG 009)
