Alburgh Village Expects to Postpone Annual Vote

4/28/2020

Islander Staff Writer 
ALBURGH – The annual Alburgh Village Meeting is expected to be postponed when the village trustees meet on Tuesday evening.
The village – like other communities in the wake of deadly COVID-19 virus – believes it needs to delay the May 5 annual meeting and vote, Trustee Chair Cheryl Dunn told The Islander.
She said a formal vote by the trustees is needed to pull the plug on the meeting that was legally warned for May 5 at the municipal offices on North Main Street.
The trustees plan a brief meeting at 6:15 p.m. Tuesday to approve the delay and also cover a few other pressing issues, including an update on the water tower, Dunn said.
No new annual meeting date is proposed. Much will depend on Gov. Phil Scott’s relaxation of his Executive Orders due to COVID-19, Dunn said.
The annual meeting is expected to include election of a village clerk, a treasurer, a trustee, a delinquent tax collector and two auditors.  The ballot items also will include raising $22,985 in local taxes to cover annual expenses, including streetlights.

What Our Clients Are Saying

To the Editor,
I have just finished reading (online) this week’s edition of the paper.  I really enjoyed your article and I’m so happy to see you are now able to expand staff and reporting.  
The Islander is such an important part of Grand Isle County and beyond.  
The North Hero I grew up in is very different today and yet very much the same. There might be bigger houses and more emphasis on tourism, but in the end it’s all about community. I have read The Islander since the very first issue.  
 The border remains closed and I am not able to visit my beloved home town, but reading The Islander every week has kept me connected for all these months.  I long for the day I can cross the Rouses Point Bridge and see the sign “Entering Vermont” and then over the bridge from Alburgh and finally see that sign that says “Welcome to North Hero”….Home!
