EGREMONT — Select Board finalizes FY27 budget and seeks school budget deferral. Chair Lucinda Fenn-Vermeulen's board unanimously approved $3,200 in cemetery budget amendments--$4,000 increase for maintenance and $2,000 for projects--and cut landfill PFAS monitoring from $17,000 to $12,500 following successful well drilling. The board voted unanimously to send a letter to the school committee requesting budget certification deferral after administrators from five towns discovered significant financial discrepancies in school records dating back several years, with June special meetings planned to address the school budget.
