Woodford Plans and Tax Battle in Bennington County
Woodford town planners push for development to broaden the tax base amid a heavy forested land base. The plan envisions industrial sites along Burgess Road Bolles Brook and Route 9 with Great Northern’s 600 homes at Hager Hill as a key hope. Local officials seek federal school funds for federally impacted areas while debating zoning, interim rules, and a March Town Meeting target.
