Manchester officials joined by the planning commission urged no financial credit for towns with existing plans when regional planning costs are computed. They argued Bennington should negotiate costs and warn that grants of credit could burden smaller towns, noting Manchester's 1962 comprehensive plan and the need for per capita cost sharing. The group also mused on potential impacts on town meetings and the inclusion of Pownal Shaftsbury Arlington and Manchester in a regional plan.
