Highlights from the meeting held on April 8th, 2026
A large number of residents attended the annual Budget Public Hearing on April 6 in the high school auditorium. After an introduction and explanation of the process by Board of Finance Chair Mike Guarco, First Selectman Mark Fiorentino and then-Board of Education Chair Monica Logan presented the municipal and education budgets, narrating slide presentations.
The focus of the Social Services Department is to coordinate existing federal, state, regional and local services, to increase community awareness of these services and to develop new programs to meet the needs of Granby residents.
The motion to approve the 2026-27 budget DID NOT PASS, with 1,166 YES votes and 1,539 NO votes.
With the warmer spring weather, we reflect on the services that were provided to residents this past winter. Granby Social Services handled 83 applications for the CT Energy Assistance Program (CEAP).
During an emergency it is important that emergency personnel quickly identify your house when responding. Finding your home, especially at night, is quite challenging if your street number is hidden, unreadable, unlit or missing entirely. This can delay responders from getting to your emergency quickly.
