Budget Recommendations Committee
The Exeter Budget Recommendations Committee was created by a vote of the 1857 Town Meeting as a five member committee. The Committee meets in the Fall of each year to review the Town's proposed operating budget for the following fiscal year. Budget committee members are elected on a slate at the annual deliberative session. Budget Committee meetings are televised on Channel 22 EXTV during the month of November, and the Committee's recommendations are forwarded to the Board of Selectmen for consideration each year.
The Town Manager forwards the initial budget to the Budget Recommendations Committee, who then reviews each Department's request, along with the Manager's budget, in a subcommittee format during October. Each subcommittee's recommendations are part of the televised meetings in November.
