Buckley aims tax relief bill faced in House debate
In Montpelier Senator T Garry Buckley R Bennington County predicted trouble for a bill to give new homeowners a tax break by equalizing assessed values. The measure would require listers to align valuations with comparable properties. Buckley argued the plan would lift towns’ Grand List gradually while opponents fear higher taxes. A second provision would require detailed breakdowns of taxed property. Fourteen Bennington Day Care Center children were guests at Harte Theatre for a matinee and the northern Bennington League of Women Voters planned a meeting to discuss lowering the voting age and congressional structure. Additionally the ad promotes John Stone Jr for Selectman District 3 3 with a March 2 vote.
