Pownal meeting honors fire department and budget calm
In a packed Pownal Elementary School gym, residents approved town and school budgets with minimal debate. Fire Chief Bruce LaBonte urged funding for liability insurance and an access road for a new fire pond, while moderator Charles Mason received praise. The town plans reduced tax support and a smaller highway budget, aided by a shorter fiscal year and lower insurance costs. A sewage and water concern prompted assurances from the school board and architect Goodrich. Sunderland later sued Goodrich over similar designs. Additional talks covered school budget voting methods, a proposed 30 foot town office addition, flood maps, and regional planning aid.
