This Committee was created at a Special Town Meeting on June 26, 1959.  It was moderated by John A. Manson.  The warrant read as follows: "...to see if the town will vote to establish a 15 member Budget Committee consisting of the Selectmen and 12 citizen members, the selectmen to serve their term of office and the citizen members to serve for a 4 year term.....this article shall take effect for the 1960 annual town meeting."   The vote was 154 yes and 67 no.

On 7/27/2016, warrant article #48 changed the Committee to a 9 member Committee with 3 year terms.
