*Ray Shields. 8/19/08. Just wondering why so many people visit the wiki site(s) but very few participate or comment on community concerns? Witness protection? Whats your thought?
Pownal Community Growth Area
*Ray Shields. 9/24/08. Quite a bit of information out there on this issue. Seems like the Pownal Village area, along with the defunct racetrack property, areas across the river, and a bit up 346 as well as a small piece of Route 7 north are included. Also reports that 75 per cent of our school tax dollars/returned, can and will be spent in this outlined area to encourage growth. Another meeting at the school to be held in Nov. for further resident information. I hope that comments on this program for our community on this site would open a dialogue so that this issue could be explored fully by all. Do you share my concerns about tax dollars being spent to develope the green mountain racetrack?
