From the meeting
At its September 23, 2026 meeting, the council took first reading of Ordinance No. 381-2026 to raise the electric utility services tax from 6% to 8%. The ordinance says the new rate would take effect as provided by law, but not earlier than December 1, 2026.
This is a revenue-side buying signal tied to the town's 2027 budget and could affect utility billing, public notices, and finance system updates.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
