Finance Committee approves Zip Print warrant; plans warrant redesign
Finance Committee · Meeting of June 11, 2026
AVON — The Avon Finance Committee approved a $5,667.35 Zip Print invoice and debriefed a special town meeting that passed an article 88-60 against the committee's recommendation. Chair Suzzette Waters led discussion on reformatting the warrant with paragraph-based layout and landscape-oriented budget sections for readability. Members reviewed FY27 preliminary revenue estimates and noted single-family property values at $658,928 average of $509,000 per unit, voting to research historical tax-impact data from prior economic downturns.
The committee proposed abandoning large joint budget meetings in favor of a hybrid model that consolidates smaller departments while reserving separate sessions for schools, fire, police, and library departments.
