Andover Budget Committee

Andover's Budget Committee is elected by the legislative body, with exception of the four members representing the Select Board, School Board, Fire District, and Water District who are appointed by their respective Boards.

The Budget Committee reviews the annual operating budget submission of the Select Board and the School Board, makes adjustments as the committee sees fit, and presents a recommended annual budget for a vote at the annual Town Meeting every March.  The Budget Committee also reviews Warrant Articles with appropriations and votes whether to recommend or not recommend them.

Committee Statutory Authority

The statutory authority of the Budget Committee is primarily derived from NH RSA 32: Municipal Budget Law.
