It would be appropriate to discuss tax bill with town officials
To the Editor:
We Charlotte taxpayers recently received property tax bills for 2024. The increase from the previous year is, I’d say, generous. It’s appropriate, therefore, for the town’s citizens to have opportunities, well warned, to ask questions and to discuss the current bill with those in town government responsible. Also invited and present should be members of state government. Maybe the governor could step in. Let’s remember, government, local and state, is there to serve its people. Not vice versa.
It was my privilege to serve Charlotte and Vermont in the state senate for a decade. Few things are as respected and carefully done as the appropriations process which designates the peoples resources for the public good.
