In referenced to the Higgin's Pit solar money. This money should be used to help lower the property taxes: Not some feel good crap to lower carbon emissions. I for one am now TAXED way beyond my ability to pay. My family have been in this town going back into the 1800's. I reside in the family home.
How this town can do this to us with a straight face I'll never understand.

It is not VACATIONLAND when the poor, disabled, elderly are forced to sell their lifelong home.
Mr. Peters' comment is directly to ontended purpose. Can the Town Council ensure that the substitute projects, by improving energy efficiency, will save us taxpayers money?

Mine did as well, I'll ask If you voted for the school bond, because that was the big driver of the tax increase this year, as we made extremely clear during it's vetting process, no I cannot ensure there will be tax savings, but I can assure you that it will be used to attempt energy efficiency, which should save money, it will not be used for "feel good crap" but it cannot be used directly to reduce taxes, as that was not it's intended purpose.

Because it's not legal for us to use the money for something substantially different from its intended purpose.
