Old Saybrook Budget Moves to Town Meeting

Old Saybrook’s Board of Finance voted at its March 26 meeting to move the town and education budgets to the annual town budget meeting, with a public information session to take place on Monday, May 6, at 7 p.m. at Old Saybrook Middle School. The town budget meeting will be adjourned to a town-wide referendum, which is scheduled for Tuesday, May 14.

The total general government budget for Fiscal Year 2019-’20 is $19,999,442, up 1.03 percent from the previous fiscal year’s budget. The education budget is $26,520,747, an increase of 2.75 percent from the previous year.

Together, the budgets amount to a total of $46,520,189, an overall increase of just more than two percent from the previous year. Each budget, however, will be voted on separately at the town referendum.
