up 35.0% from 2020 and up 10.8% from 2019. Compared to amended budget,
year to date collections are up 0.8%. Inflation as measured by the consumer price

million.
Real Estate Transfer Tax (RETT)
RETT collections through October 26 total $9,854,432 up 24.1% from this time last
year and up 85.1% from this time in 2019. The 2021 amended RETT budget totals

Summary
Across all funds, year-to-date total revenue of $66.8 million is up 1.1% from
amended budget and 30.6% from prior year. In comparing to the town’s last

increase include grant funding as well as growth in real estate transfer tax,
property tax collections, sales tax, daily parking sales during January through
April, and construction activities.
