Selectboard Meeting Notes – Rising Parking Costs and Property Taxes
A hot July evening, and the Brattleboro Selectboard approved new property tax rates. , The Town’s Finance Director told the board 75% of the increase is because of education. Dick Degray called it an unsustainable increase.
The new parking ordinance had a first reading. The costs to business owners and employees on Main Street was a concern to some and an outright horror to others.
The board made a list of things to discuss with legislators, adjusted rules for political signs, and discussed parking enforcement at the Vermont Country Deli.
