Dorset Sportsmen permit tale spots Act 250 quirk
At a Dorset community hall a long process under Act 250 surfaced as the Dorset Sportsmen's Club sought a land use permit after building without required state environmental approvals. The delay followed by a district commission review allowed the almost finished 40 by 70 foot hall to gain permit with few conditions. The article also notes county caucus results in Manchester for both Republicans and Democrats and mentions a forthcoming sales tax special session.

Vermont Rep. W. Michael Nawrath asks the state attorney general to rule if Gov. Salmon had authority to grant pay raises to nine top state officials. The raises total $18,900, despite a legislature bill limiting increases for higher echelon public servants. Salmon cites job alignment, while critics push for cuts over tax or wage changes.
