Lancaster Town Budget

The town conducts budget meetings at the beginning of each year (prior to the town meeting), which are open to the public. They are an excellent way for you to provide input, as the result of these hearings will affect property taxes.

Town Meeting Summary

NOTE: The town meeting is held in March and is an opportunity for all Lancaster NH residents to discuss and vote on the issues and budget for the town.

Budget hearings are typically held in early January and the public is invited. Notices will be published in the papers, and posted at the town hall. You can also sign up for the Resident Notices and receive information that way. For specific information, contact the town clerk.
