Wanda Hyde reported she had to amend the Town of Bayview levy limit worksheet to remove $8,400 reported in Section D Line F as this step for this increase did not follow the correct steps.  For future reference the steps should be:

• First, the town board meets, proposes a dollar increase in the levy and approves by majority vote of the town board the proposed increase by written resolution of the town board.
• Second, after the town board meeting where the levy increase was proposed and approved by majority vote of the town board, a notice is posted for special town meeting of electors.  The notice must be posted 15 days but not more than 20 days prior to the special town meeting and after the town board meeting.  A separate agenda item must be included on the notice stating the electors will vote on the levy increase, proposed by the town board, as the special town meeting of electors.
• Third, the special town meeting of electors is held, where the electors must vote on the levy increase proposed by the town board.
• Fourth, the electors, by a separate vote at the special town meeting, approved the total town tax levy.
• These documents will all be attached to the original levy with the Department of Revenue.

Wanda Hyde asked when town roads would be posted.  Mike Yonan would get the advertisement to the press the next day that posting would start on March 24th until May 22nd.

Wanda Hyde, noted that her official last day would be April 17th, 2023 but would work a lot with new clerk right after election until that date.
