CONWAY — Town Manager Tom Holmes told selectmen at their last meeting that due to inflationary pressures the town operating budget being proposed for 2022 is close to $900,000 higher than last year’s.

Holmes — who was the town assessor before becoming town manager — also said property values are increasing so fast that the board should think about doing a revaluation next year, which would be two years early.
