Weybridge Town Meeting Day 2026 Results

WEYBRIDGE — In a contested selectboard race, incumbent Kelly Flynn on Town Meeting Day was elected to a two-year term on the Weybridge board, outpolling Chris Bagley, 137-86. Incumbent Charlie Jordan was uncontested for a three-year term on the board.

All other municipal elections in Weybridge were uncontested.

Residents also passed all financial requests on their warning, including:

  • A proposed fiscal year 2027 highway budget of $678,349, and a general fund of $261,402, reflecting hikes of 9.6% and 23.9% respectively.
  • A non-binding resolution urging the state Legislature to discuss and vote on bill H.433, which would launch “Green Mountain Care,” a publicly financed health care program for all Vermont residents that would initially offer universal access to primary care.
  • $30,000 for the Weybridge Volunteer Fire Department.
  • $15,000.00 to continue the town’s volunteer recycling program for FY27.
  • $26,767.00 to continue a partnership with the town of Middlebury through which Weybridge residents get full access to Ilsley Library services. Weybridge doesn’t operate a local public library.
  • $70,000 to seed a new “unanticipated expense reserve fund.”

Voters rejected a resolution that would have encouraged Weybridge’s elected leaders “to end all current and future town business, investments and contracts with companies as long as such companies engage in business that sustains Israel’s apartheid, genocide, and illegal occupation of Palestine.”

Weybridge residents on Tuesday, March 3, also cast ballots on a proposed fiscal year 2027 Addison Central School District budget of $53 million, a proposed FY27 Patricia Hannaford Career Center (PHCC) budget of $6,271,915; a referendum seeking formal closure of Ripton Elementary School; and a series of uncontested elections for the ACSD board.
