The recording of the School Board Info session started a little late. The link to the recording is below. Three items were mentioned by the School Board Chair prior to the line item tax rate discussion that begins the recording. Those items included:

1. A correction to page 60 in the town report, paragraph 4 – The work of transitioning the finance tracking from the district to the Supervisory Union could not have been completed without the assistance and support of Gail Chaine. The School Board apologizes for leaving Gail out of that acknowledgment, and thank her for her work.

2. The School Board thanks David Holzapfel for his years of service on the School Board. David came on to assist with Act 46 and has been a great resource to the Board and the Community.

3. On page 59 – the paragraph in the Director’s Report that discusses the tax rate is now outdated. The estimated tax rate is 1.70 and the numbers are accurately reflected on page 56.

So, how did Town Meeting work this year?  
There was no in-person Town Meeting this year due to the pandemic.  All articles were be voted by Australian ballot per decision of the Marlboro Select Board and Town Clerk in December 2020.

Posting of Recommendation: Each establishment is individually responsible to post signage at the entrance and at other appropriate locations stating that customers (or visitors) are strongly encouraged to wear face coverings by recommendation of the Marlboro Select Board.

Effective Period: This declaration shall remain in effect until the Marlboro Select Board amends, rescinds, or suspends the declaration, or until the Governor declares an end to the COVID-19 State of Emergency in Vermont, whichever occurs first.
