Good News for Town Grand List Jumps in 1968
Bennington listers announced a record high grand list for the town, projecting a $1 million or more rise at 50 percent of fair market value. Growth comes mainly from new commercial and industrial construction, including Bennington Plaza, Merrill Transport terminal, and a new telephone building. Residential building slowed, but mobile home listings rise, with Bijur Lubricating Co. planned to add a plant and water sewer lines debated for Park Street Hicks Avenue.

Hoff Labels Proposal By GOP Unbelievable
Montpelier Vermont Gov. Philip Hoff blasted a Republican plan to cut state spending 3 percent for 1968, calling it unbelievable and saying the cuts would effectively total 7.8 percent in the year’s second half. He promised to outline specific reductions in payroll, overtime, vacancies, and purchases to balance the budget, while Republicans push cuts without tax hikes. Hoff noted a 93.3 million supplemental budget with a 2 percent rooms and meals and corporate franchise tax increase to balance a 142 million 1969 end-year outlook.

A Few Words Permitted Shift In Highway Construction Plans
MONTPELIER Vermont officials testified on a 15 word clause in the 1966 amended House version of the accelerated highway program. Rich Nicholls said the mandate to complete an arterial highway system by 1980 pushed the department to pursue interstate type routes on U S 7 from Rutland to the Massachusetts line. The shift helped balloon the program from 142.7 million to 457 million in 18 months, amid questions about funding, bonds, and prior information to lawmakers.
