Town of Pomfret 
Annual Budget Process
      The Town of Pomfret has modified its budget process according to an Executive Order by the Governor for all municipalities in the State of Connecticut.  The 2020-2021 budget review and approval process is moving forward as planned, however all meetings are being held as virtual meetings on ZOOM.us.
      Access to all meetings is posted on each Board of Selectmen, Education, and Finance agenda and residents may participate online or by phone. Comments may be submitted online through the Town’s website, by snail mail or phone.  The 2020-2021 Budgets are posted online and include the General Government operational budget, the Capital and Non-Recurring expenditures, the Board of Education Budget, expected revenues and other components of the budget. 
     The Board of Finance is responsible for presenting a final combined budget to the Town and setting a mill rate.  This year, the Governor’s Executive Order makes it possible for the Board of Selectmen to authorize the BOF to adopt the budget for next year without going to an Annual Town Meeting so we want to make every effort to give the public ample opportunity to weigh in on the budgets.  
        There will be an all Boards Meeting on the 2020-2021 Budget on Thursday, April 30 at 7 p.m.  The ZOOM online meeting information is available on the Town of Pomfret website at   pomfretct.gov.
