The Woodstock Budget Passes

The budget includes the $15.69 million education budget and the $5.45 million general government budget. Voters also approved the town’s five-year capital improvement plan of $11.1 million. This budget computes to a 0.5-mill tax hike. A mill equals $1 for every $1,000 in assessed property value, so property owners with $150,000 assessments will see a $75 increases in their tax bills.

This is the earliest approved budget we can recall. There was no Town meeting. The Town Meeting was held on May 10th. (Thanks for the correction, T! – Admin)

YES votes = 352

NO votes = 286
