Finance Committee - The Finance Committee's primary responsibility is to make recommendations to Town Meeting on all of Sudbury's financial matters.

Throughout the year, the committee regularly interacts with town and school officials and various other committees on fiscal issues. It holds public budget hearings in January and February each year. It is helpful for applicants to have some financial, accounting or budgeting experience.
