Impact analysis
Property tax exemptions and the 2027 default budget could change what you pay, while recycling and traffic projects may affect fees or town spending.
Residents who use the Transfer Station, drivers and neighborhoods affected by traffic fixes, Depot Park users, and taxpayers eligible for exemptions could all come out ahead.
Taxpayers who don’t qualify for exemptions or who face budget-driven costs could be on the hook, and neighbors near traffic changes may see disruptions.
