Some reminders from the Town Clerk about the upcoming fiscal year:

Taxes – This year property tax bills will be sent out in late September. This will reduce the number of revised tax bills mailed. When you receive your bill, it will show any State payments (prebate) that have been made. If you have any questions regarding your prebate payment, please contact the Tax Department directly at 866-828-2865 (toll-free).

Direct Debit Program – The Town of Bristol is excited to provide you with easier way to pay your taxes.  We have set up the Direct-Debit Tax Payment Program. When you participate in the Direct-Debit Tax payment program, your property taxes are automatically withdrawn from your checking or savings account on the due date(s). For your protection, the program is governed by state and federal regulations, and you can stop participating at any time, with appropriate notification.

Voting – If you have not registered to vote, you may do so prior to the election or on the day of the election. Forms are available at the Town Office, Lawrence Memorial Library or at the Department of Motor Vehicles. All ballots for voting are available at least two weeks prior to any election. You can choose to vote in person, have your ballot mailed to you or take a ballot home.

DMV Registration Renewals – In order for us to process your renewal, we must have the renewal form the DMV sends you. We can only accept checks or money orders for the amount of the renewal and are not allowed to accept any renewals more than 60 days old. There is a three dollar ($3.00) fee for processing the renewal, which is separate from the registration fee and can be paid in cash. To register online at the DMV click here.

Licenses and tags may be sent in the mail to you if you send us a copy of the dog’s rabies certificate with a check for the fee.

Marriage Licenses – The cost is $80.00 plus $10.00 for each certified copy you request. They are valid for 60 days from the date of issuance. You will need to complete an Application which is available at the Town Office or on-line here.
