Town Meeting and 2025 Property Tax Preview

Thursday, March 27 at 6pm

Want to have a pre-Town Meeting peek at what your 2025 property taxes might be?

  • Have want to understand the referendum questions (voted on April 4) or the various appropriations to be considered at the open town meeting on April 5?
  • Have questions about the budget underlying those appropriations?
  • Want to educate yourself about any other Town Meeting articles before the actual meeting?

The Blue Hill Select Board will hold a public meeting on Thursday, March 27 at 6:00pm in the Town Hall auditorium to address these matters. If you haven’t already seen the 2024 Annual Report and 2025 Warrant, please download a copy.

Public Hearing on the GSA Excess Tuition Payment

The meeting will begin with a required public hearing on the GSA Excess Tuition Payment referendum question.

Budget Review and Tax Preview

After the hearing, there will be

  • a presentation on the 2025 budget (focusing on the municipal budget by major category, but also including the school and county tax budgets); and
  • a preview of what approval of all Town Meeting articles would mean for the 2025 property tax mill rate, which is used to calculate property taxes on individual properties.

Q&A

In addition to addressing questions on any of the above, this is also an opportunity to ask any other questions about the Town Meeting articles outside of that business meeting.
