Shamrock Lakes Adopts 2027 Budget After September Planning
From the Shamrock Lakes Town Board meeting in October 2026; exact date unconfirmed
Shamrock Lakes adopted its 2027 budget at its October town-board meeting after advertising a spending plan of $106,725 and a proposed property-tax levy of $57,119.
The adoption motion received a second and audible ayes, with no opposition heard. A brief exchange clarified that the intended action was adoption, rather than a separate second vote.
The Ledger reported in September that adoption was planned for October 15. The meeting's exact date remains unconfirmed.
The advertised spending estimates included $59,075 for the General Fund and $38,850 for Motor Vehicle Highway. Local Road & Street was listed at $4,500, EDIT at $3,300 and Casino at $1,000. The advertised current levy was $53,871.
Those figures describe the advertised plan. The board did not state a final adopted total or read each fund appropriation during the vote. They do not establish a certified levy or the change in any individual household's tax bill.
