Creating an annual town budget is not an easy task. Balancing community needs with rising costs, and working to keep tax increases to a minimum is a difficult process. We have to invest in our town, our town staff and buildings, and town services to support the future of the families who live here. 

​

Below is a year over year comparison of the Newfields Town Budget and budget changes for different departments, including the Library, Police, Fire, and General Government.

​

Viewing these numbers shows our community's support to our town departments and staff over the years, and now it's time to provide this same support for the Paul Memorial Library. Being able to have full-time staff will increase programs and services and benefit residents of all ages. Without a community center or senior center in town, many of those social supports and programs fall to the Library.
