Panton OKs $121,000 for new trucks to plow roads

Posted on January 5, 2015 |
By Andy Kirkaldy



PANTON — Twenty Panton residents at a 22-minute special meeting Dec. 17 unanimously backed a selectboard proposal for a $121,012, five-year truck loan.

They also supported the board’s proposal to use a budget carry-over from the past year to make the first year’s payment for the truck of $20,192.

The selectboard had called the meeting to seek voter approval because the fully equipped, International Viking tandem plow vehicle was not in the board’s budget for the current fiscal year.

Panton to vote on truck, fund

By Andy Kirkaldy



PANTON — The Panton selectboard is asking residents to approve a truck loan for $121,012 at a Dec. 17 special meeting, but at the same time the board is making plans for two long-term funds that its members hope will avoid such meetings in the future.

If residents say yes to the truck at a Panton Town Hall meeting set to begin at 6 p.m. that Wednesday, the town will get a new, fully equipped tandem plow vehicle, said board chairman John Viskup last week.

Panton workers are re-appointed to jobs

By Andy Kirkaldy



PANTON — Panton’s charter change, which residents approved on Town Meeting Day and the Vermont Legislature supported this past winter with only minor language changes, became official on July 1 — and three key town jobs are no longer elected positions.

The Panton selectboard met on Tuesday to choose a town clerk, treasurer and delinquent tax collector, and chose to re-appoint the elected incumbents — clerk Jean Miller, treasurer Diane Merrill and tax collector Barbara Fleming.

Retail pro takes chance, follows her dream to Panton General Store

PantonStore7711.jpg

PANTON — For most of her 30 years in retail, about half of them spent working her way up in the Jolley Associates chain of convenience stores, Bridport native Linda Goodspeed dreamed of running her own country store.

In the first weekend of June, that dream came true for Goodspeed, 51, who now lives in Vergennes with her husband, John.

That’s when Goodspeed threw open the front door of the Panton General Store, which former owner Andy Megroz had decided last fall to shut down at least for the winter.

Panton considers having selectboard choose town clerk, treasurer rather than voters

Posted on February 10, 2014 |
By Andy Kirkaldy



PANTON — Panton residents on Town Meeting Day will decide whether they will continue to elect their own town clerk, treasurer and delinquent tax collector, or give the Panton selectboard the power to appoint people to those town offices.

That choice will be framed on March 4 as a potential change to the town’s land grant charter. Per state law, if voters back that change, which is being recommended and put forth by the selectboard, the Vermont Legislature would still have to approve it before it could take effect.

Panton Farmland conserved Ed_Biello.jpg

PANTON — Ed and Beverly Biello were not considering conservation when they bought a home and land in Panton in 2000. Their property had scenic views of Lake Champlain with good access from Adams Ferry Road so they looked into selling house lots.

By Andy Kirkaldy



PANTON — A half-dozen Panton residents attended the Oct. 28 Vergennes Union High School board meeting to urge school officials to seek ways to rein in VUHS spending.

Many in Panton have been upset that the town’s residential school tax rate, although it had been essentially unchanged since 2008-2009, jumped by almost 18 cents for the 2013-2014 fiscal year.

Panton tax increase irks residents

Posted on October 3, 2013 |
By Andy Kirkaldy



PANTON — When Panton homeowners opened their tax bills late this summer, they found an unwelcome surprise: a school-tax hike of almost 18 cents.

That sharp increase — although it represented basically Panton’s first since 2009 — has sparked reaction by residents and town officials alike, including a Sept. 24 selectboard meeting that was better attended than Panton’s town meeting.

Residents are upset with the pace of education funding reform, which was an issue in Montpelier even before Act 60 became law in the late 1990s.
