William Post, Rockport Town Manager Sun, 12/13/2020 - 5:00pm
The following is the bimonthly report from the Rockport Town Manager to the Rockport Select Board, which meets Dec. 14, for a regularly scheduled meeting.
I have worked with the Maine Municipal Association staff to develop two legislative bills that will be sponsored by Representative Vicki Doudera [D-Camden]. The first bill authorizes municipalities to adopt an ordinance extending an excise tax exemption to volunteer firefighters. The exemption would need to be on one vehicle that the volunteer firefighter uses to respond to calls. In addition, the bill would allow any local ordinance o enumerate addition eligibility criteria.
