Selectmen project a substantial 1964 town tax cut in Bennington as the grand list grows and expenses shrink. The plan targets a combined town and highway tax drop of about 29 cents from 1963, with the general fund near 1.90 and a leaner highway levy. Major savings come from reduced debt, landfill, and poor relief costs, offset by higher election spending.
