VERNON â With no debate, Vernon voters passed a municipal budget of nearly $1,962,032 with $1.6 million of that to be raised from taxes. The remainder is expected to be raised through revenues received by the town and nearly $37,000 carried over from the current fiscal year, which ends June 1.
The approved budget was a $68,000 increase over last yearâs budget of $1,894,285.
Most of the discussion during Sundayâs annual Town Meeting revolved around solid waste disposal and the townâs pay-as-you-throw program.
Article 13 asked voters to appropriate $108,000 for municipal refuse and town-wide recycling. The total does not include funds for state-mandated composting, for which each homeowner is responsible.
