The 2024 Tentative Budget is a rough draft budget based on conversations and decisions made between the Supervisor and the Town’s department heads. The Budget Workshop allows the Town Council to weigh in and modify the Supervisor’s decisions made in the rough draft. Once the Town Council is satisfied with their decisions on the Tentative Budget, it becomes the Town Council’s budget, commonly known as the 2024 Preliminary Budget. The Supervisor may be required by the Town Council to research and execute certain directives in order to cut the Preliminary Budget even further. This will take place between the Budget Workshop and the November Special Meeting.
