Each year three of the FinCom members\u2019 terms expire and it is the job of the Moderator to appoint new members. This year, new appointments to the FinCom will be made at the end of Annual Town Meeting in May.<\/p>\n<p>The FinCom\u2019s primary responsibility is to make recommendations to Town Meeting on all of Sudbury\u2019s financial matters. The Committee regularly interacts with Town and school officials and various other committees on fiscal items, and holds public budget hearings in January and February of each year. At Town Meeting, the FinCom is required by law to present voters with a balanced non-override budget (one that does not exceed the levels of Proposition 2 1\/2) and to make recommendations on all money articles. The FinCom meetings are public and are usually held on the third Monday of the month. All meetings are in the Flynn Building and begin at 7:30 p.m. unless otherwise posted.<\/p>\n<p>Persons with a working knowledge of finance or accounting make fine FinCom members, although it is equally important that members are able to work collaboratively within a group setting. All residents who are interested in serving on the FinCom should contact me directly for further information.
