Public Post: Solar Projects, Property Taxes, One Taylor Street

Vermont Public | By Peter Biello,

Published August 3, 2014 at 12:25 PM EDT

Community solar projects around Vermont were awarded $442,000 in Clean Energy Development Grant funds this week. Towns across the state are setting property tax rates and mailing out annual tax bills. The final community participation event for the planning of Montpelier's One Taylor Street project has been moved back to September.

Correction, August 4, 2014 at 11:30 a.m.: The FY 2015 tax rate increase in Hinesburg is $0.0085, not $0.85, as was stated in the town's July 24 draft select board meeting minutes and originally reported in this story.
