State aid rise poised for Bennington BSD on strong Grand List
A favorable state Tax Department rating for Bennington's Grand List boosts anticipated BSD school aid. The department valued the town's 1973 Grand List closely to state projections, aided by last year's Cole-Layer-Trumble reappraisal. BSD officials credit the effort rating and professional appraisal for the increased aid potential. The department uses this “effort rating” in the Miller Formula to determine aid, with Supt. George A. Sleeman not immediately available for exact figures.

Listers press for full-time appraiser to keep Grand List fair
Bennington listers urged the town to hire a full-time lister to maintain equity after a 1973 reappraisal by Cole-Layer-Trumble. They plan to formally request funds of 12 000 to 15 000 annually, seek CLT defense of appraisals, and review new and transferred properties since reappraisal. The board may invite CLT head Forrest Dyer to discuss inequities and potential contractual obligations.
