ADDISON — Voters in Addison will decide the races for two contested selectboard seats on Town Meeting Day.

They’ll head to the Addison Community Center gymnasium on March 3 between 7 a.m.-7 p.m. to cast a vote for Michael Hollis, incumbent Roger Waterman or Mason West for a two-year term, and either Chris Carella or Daniel P. Rossignol for a three-year term.

That day voters will also consider the town’s proposed $746,236 general fund budget ($605,202 to be raised by taxes) and proposed $1,077,572 highway fund budget ($987,322 to be raised by taxes).

The proposed highway fund is up about 5% from the $1,024,005 voters approved last year.

Though the general fund budget proposal is down about 5.4% from last year, the sum of that money to be raised by taxes is up from the $248,451.33 that was planned to be collected during FY26. American Rescue Plan Act money padded the general fund last year.

Additionally, voters are being asked to weigh in on several appropriations for social service agencies, totaling $62,656 to be distributed among them. If the article is approved, the Bixby Library would be given the largest portion of that sum ($30,162), Town Line First Response would receive the second-most ($10,000) and the Open Door Clinic the third-largest ($2,500).

The other 18 other organizations included would receive between $250-$1,644.

On March 3 voters will also review the $28,314,179 Addison Northwest School District budget.

The tax rate won’t be concrete until a state budget is passed and state aid is known, according to the school board chair. Still, the school board has outlined illustrative tax estimates if the spending plan is passed as warned. For Addison residents, a $1.9995 education property tax is predicted, up from $1.8916 per $100 of assessed property value. This would increase property taxes $110 per $100,000 of assessed value.

The ANWSD Annual Meeting and Public Information Hearing on this budget is scheduled for March 2 at 6 p.m. at the VUHS library.

Addison’s annual informational meeting is scheduled for March 2, at 7 p.m. in the Addison Community Center gymnasium.
