Missing $6000 explored by selectmen over delinquent tax system
A town board meeting will discuss a possible $6000 loss tied to the delinquent tax system started during former tax collector Malone's probe. Malone blames the 1970s setup on Lamb’s administration and Gordon Gould Sherman with town help, and notes the year end write off of $6000. An older town grader matter and Willowbrook fire damages also surface as side items. Mount Mansfield snow reports note five inches atop the summit, with slick Smuggler's Notch roads.

Break in weather averts Vermont flood threat
Civil defense officials hoped a rain break would spare Vermont from major flooding after 1.18 inches fell in 24 hours and a prior month’s 6.33 inches set a record. Flood warnings stood by if rain resumed, with minor flooding and road closures already reported. Lake Champlain ferry service halted then resumed with heavy vehicle restrictions as officials marked the 50th anniversary of the 1927 disaster.
