PIERMONT — Two Upper Valley towns will consider upgrades to their town office buildings during Town Meeting this year.

PIERMONT — The approximately 30 voters at Tuesday night’s annual school meeting reduced the proposed school budget by about $50,000.

PIERMONT — Residents approved a $1.05 million proposal to build a new town office building during Saturday’s Town Meeting at Piermont Village School.

PIERMONT — Wayne Godfrey bested Vincent Colasanti for a three-year term on the Selectboard, 74-55.

Article of note: One article on the town warrant asks whether voters support a $1.05 million plan to build a new town office building. Another town article would allow the Selectboard to appoint a road agent for a term of three years, rather than having the town elect one. Another town article would set the town clerk’s pay at $23 per hour. Another article asks whether voters will give the Selectboard authority to establish the opening and closing hours and dates of the Bean Brook Pool on an annual basis.
