The board also approved the warning for the 2021 Town Meeting Tuesday night, adopting a proposed town budget of $6 million, which town officials said was level-funded over last year’s budget. Of the $6,021,089 town budget, $5,122,944 has to be raised locally. As a result, town taxes are projected to see a small decline from the current tax year, according to the town’s finance director, Shannon Burbela. She said there had been a slight increase in the town’s grand list of taxable properties. The proposed tax rate is $1.0903, down 0.0087 of a cent.

Bellows Falls community ski tow up and running

Don t miss the big stories. Like us on Facebook.   BELLOWS FALLS — It may not be long, but it’s steep and “Black Diamond” all the way. The Bellows Falls Community Ski Tow hasn’t seen much activity in recent years, due to a lack of consistent snow and equipment problems. But last week’s record snowfall of close to 30 inches of powder has inspired some dedicated snow lovers to troubleshoot the tow’s problems and get it running for area kids just as their Christmas vacation starts. The small, lighted and rustic hill will be running Wednesday, from 5 to 8 p.m. It was open on Tuesday afternoon as well, and opened this past Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with some mechanical difficulties periodically cutting into the ski tow’s time.
