What this counts

What this report counts

A row is a transfer as the Board of Assessors’s minutes record it: sometimes one line to another, sometimes one total for a batch, sometimes only the vote. Totals add the amounts the minutes print; a transfer approved with no amount printed is counted and adds nothing. The fiscal year is the one the minutes state where they state one, otherwise the year the meeting fell in, marked as ours.

Read from every set of School Committee minutes the archive holds — 211, 5 Oct 2010 to 11 Aug 2026 — as the meeting process reads each new one. “From” and “to” are read off the minutes’ wording by us; the description and the quoted words are the evidence.
