The Bethel Board of Finance is holding a virtual public hearing tonight on the proposed budget.  The municipal side of the plan is proposed at $31.79 million, an approximately $200,000 increase from the current year.  The proposed school budget is $47.9 million, a $1.5 million increase over the current year.  There's more money for Police Officers, the Senior Center, Social Services department, and tax abatement program are all fully funded.  The mill rate increase is less than 1%, meaning the average Bethel household will pay $5.91 more per month.  The online Public Hearing is at 7 pm.  The zoom link can be found on the agenda, on the town's website.
