Town Meeting Day and Tax increases

[KingsFourMan]

So, the new $100,000,000 Woodstock High School got shot down as expected huh?

It was 30 million cheaper before COVID to build it, maybe they should wait for the real recession to hit before pulling a trigger on that.

Either that or reverse the school year in killington from summers to winters off and let the kids go to school in one of the new base lodges during the summer months and pay Killington a lease LOL. Build a new Bear lodge and double duty it as the high school.

30% tax increases in a town trying to build a ski village for 2nd homeowners isn't a good idea. You'll drive non-resident people to put their money elsewhere.

The school budget also went down to defeat, one of the 29 districts (out of 95 or so) to reject proposed school budgets.

Are you sure about that? I read that after Woodstocks votes where counted the budget had passed.

I thought it had failed but I’ll double check.


Edit: You’re right. It passed after the Woodstock votes came in.
