Vermont poised for 14 million surplus as taxes rise
Vermont will finish the fiscal year June 30 with an estimated 14 million dollar surplus. Governor Snelling urges restraint and suggests using the windfall to reduce taxes and debt, expand education aid, or trim bureaucracy. Personal income tax up 21 percent, corporate taxes up 60 percent, sales tax up 15 percent. University of Hartford violin scholar Lauren Danisch receives the Susan Pelton Scholarship for the second year. A program of elderly outreach, the Friendly Visitors, grows with about 25 volunteers and six pages of eligible seniors in Bennington.
