Before each March town meeting, the prior year’s Annual Report is prepared along with proposed warrant articles. 2017 Annual Report is printed for 2018 town meeting.
After each town meeting, the Town Clerk prepares the Town Meeting Minutes, reporting the official votes on the proposed warrant articles as they may have been amended during the voting process at town meeting. The minutes will appear in that calendar year’s Town Report, to be printed for the following year’s town meeting.
So the 2017 Annual Report prepared for the 2018 town meeting includes the 2018 proposed Warrant Articles but the final vote results of the warrant articles as they may have been amended appear in the town meeting minutes.*
(*which can also be found in that year’s annual Annual Report for the next town meeting)
