Getting to Know Your City Departments

Budget Breakdowns
As we approach Town Meeting Day, the City will be sharing a series of informational posts featuring the information provided in the FY27 Budget Book. Each day, the City will spotlight one department and highlight who they are, what they do, and the changes to their proposed budget for FY27.

These posts are designed to help residents understand how their local government works and where their tax dollars go. From public safety and public works to planning and recreation, you'll get an inside look at the people and programs that keep Montpelier running.

What to Expect:

• Clear, accessible summaries of each department's role
• Information about staff and services
• Details on proposed FY27 budget changes
• Insights into how departments support the community

Whether you're preparing for Town Meeting Day or simply want to learn more about your city government, these posts will provide valuable context about the services and investments that shape daily life in Montpelier.
