decisions are made by those who show up
Kicking off with good news:
Farmer and the bell is open! Praise Beyonce and the carb gods! I highly recommend the double chocolate donut AND the creemee with syrup from Jenne Farm.
The new website spree continues: this time it’s the library!
The 50th Annual Harvest Supper sold out both seatings. Congrats and many thanks to the PTO, Change the World Kids, and Principal Workman for such a great dinner.
My husband has agreed to sell the station wagon. Telling you all in case he forgets :)
Vondell Cobb Listening Tour
The Selectboard is going on a listening tour for the next 3 weeks to hear what how the community wants to proceed with a conservation easement with the Vermont Land Trust on the Vondell Cobb Reservoir property. Town staff are working on confirming dates and locations - keep your eyes on the listserv for specifics.
Objectives and Goals
The Village Board of Trustees and the Town Selectboard will be kicking off their joint meetings to set goals for the fiscal year on Tuesday at 5:30pm. Here is the link to last year’s goals. IF YOU ONLY ATTEND ONE MEETING THIS YEAR, THIS IS THE ONE TO ATTEND. The goals we identify and vote on will help guide our budget and decision making process over the next year.
I’ve heard from a lot of you over the past few weeks regarding everything from traffic patrol to culverts to a merger to housing to parking. If you want our government to work for you, please come to the meeting in person (or virtually) and give us feedback.
Upcoming dates
If your kids are not yet ready to be scared this Halloween, come to the SBOOKY Library party on Sunday, October 26th.
Taxes are due on November 7th. The town only issues ONE bill per year, so please mark your calendars for the next payment due date in May.
Register for Zack’s Place Turkey Trot on November 27th. I highly recommend signing up if you need to escape visiting family for a few hours on Thanksgiving.
