Requirement to Wear Face Covering.
All establishments located in the Town of East Montpelier that invite the public into their premises for the purpose of receiving services, purchasing products, or otherwise transacting business, shall require both staff and customers (or visitors) to wear cloth face coverings or face shields over their nose and mouth while inside the establishment.

Exceptions.
• Cloth face coverings are not required on young children under age 5.
• Cloth face coverings should not be placed on anyone who has trouble breathing or anyone who is unconscious, incapacitated, or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance.
• Cloth face coverings are not required for any person while eating or drinking inside any establishment that serves food or beverage.

Posting of Requirement.
Each establishment is individually responsible to post signage at the entrance and at other appropriate locations stating that customers (or visitors) are required to wear face coverings by order of the East Montpelier Selectboard.

Effective Period.
This Rule shall take effect immediately and shall remain in effect until the East Montpelier Selectboard amends, rescinds, or suspends this Rule by future action in a properly warned meeting or when an action taken by the State of Vermont nullifies this Rule or the Selectboard’s authority to continue this Rule, whichever occurs first.

East Montpelier Road Work Updates

Cherry Tree Hill Road:

Cherry Tree Hill Road will be closed on Wednesday, August 4, 2021 at the north (Quaker/Vincent Flats intersection) end to allow for the replacement of the culvert just to the south of that intersection. This will be a full-day project with the road closed soon after sunrise and expected to be open for normal traffic flow by nightfall. Local traffic can access all points on Cherry Tree Hill Road from the Towne Hill Road end.

 

County Road:

There is a major project tentatively scheduled for mid-August to mid-September along County Road. Two large culverts will be replaced and the southern 3.83 miles of the East Montpelier portion of the road (all but the section north of Horn of the Moon Road) will be reclaimed and paved. Precise timing is still up in the air as we await the issuance of wetland permits for the two culvert replacements.

Culvert project Site #1 is located on Barnes Brook just to the south of the lower drive for Morse Farm Maple Sugarworks. Site #2 is located on Mallory Brook about 1,000 feet north of the Barnes Road intersection, just south of the Keough driveway at 1648 County Road. There will be a full closure of County Road at the south side of Site #1 and the north side of Site #2 starting in mid-August for up to 16 days. There will be no through traffic at any time during that period. Local traffic, including to Morse Farm, will access the affected stretch by way of Barnes Road off of Center Road. Other local traffic and all through traffic will need to find alternative routes, preferably along VT Rte. 12 or US Rte. 2/VT Rte. 14 for the through traffic. The contractor for both culvert projects is Blue Mountain Trucking & Excavating.

Pike Industries will do the reclaiming work in late August/early September after the in-road portion of the culvert projects is complete, with paving scheduled for mid-September. The road will be open but with a gravel surface during the interim period.

We will provide updates as the schedule firms up. We apologize for any inconvenience this necessary roadwork may cause. If you have any questions regarding the road projects, please contact Town Administrator Bruce Johnson (manager@eastmontpeliervt.org; 223-3313 x 204) or Road Foreman Guthrie Perry (highway@eastmontpeliervt.org; 223-5870).

2021 Listers Notice to Taxpayers

On June 3, 2021 the East Montpelier Listers lodged the 2021 Grand List with the Town Clerk.

2021 Listers Notice to Taxpayers

The Grand List contains the listing of all taxable properties in the town along with the current assessment of each property. The lodging of this list opens a two-week window in which taxpayers can grieve their current property assessment. Taxpayers whose assessment changed during the past year will receive direct notice of the change and right to grieve. All taxpayers, however, have the right to grieve during this period.

32 V.S.A. §4111(g) reads as follows:

A person who feels aggrieved by the action of the listers and desires to be heard by them, shall, on or before the day of the grievance meeting, file with them his objections in writing and may appear at such grievance meeting in person or by his agents or attorneys. Upon the hearing of such grievance the parties thereto may submit such documentary or sworn evidence as shall be pertinent thereto.

Grievance hearings will be held on Thursday, June 17, 2021 from 9:00 a.m. to noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Grievances must be submitted in writing and received at the town office by 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, June 16, 2021. We recommend using the following form, but it is not mandatory.

2021 Application for Grievance

Submit the grievance request to:

East Montpelier Listers
PO Box 157
East Montpelier, VT 05651
– or –
listers@eastmontpeliervt.org
– or –
Drop off at the town office, 40 Kelton Road: Use either the drop box next to the handicap ramp or the drop slot at the rear entrance or, if you’d prefer, hand the request off in person at the front door during business hours.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, once again this year we will be conducting the grievance hearings by remote means (by phone or Zoom conferencing service). Once we receive your request for a hearing we will contact you to determine an agreeable methodology for holding your hearing.

If you have questions, please contact the listers at (802) 223-3313×206 or listers@eastmontpeliervt.org.

For more information, please see the State of Vermont handbook on the tax appeal process:

County Road Culvert & Paving Project Bid Notice

The Town of East Montpelier invites contractors to bid on the County Road Culvert & Pavement Project. The combined project involves the replacement of two large culverts and the reclaiming/paving of 3.83 miles of the road. Culvert replacement site #1 starts approximately 0.36 miles south of the Barnes Road intersection with County Road, extending north for 375 feet. Culvert replacement site #2 starts approximately 0.15 miles north of the Barnes Road intersection, extending north for 400 feet. The paving project runs from the Montpelier line to Horn of the Moon Road.

The town will hold a pre-construction bid meeting on Thursday, May 13, 2021, 9:00 a.m. at the lower drive/parking area of Morse Farm Maple Sugarworks, 1168 County Road, just north of culvert replacement site #1. We recommend that all interested contractors attend the pre-bid conference.

Although the town would prefer a single contractor for the entire combined project, the town will consider bids for the individual projects or any combination of the projects.

Bids are due Monday, May 24, 2021 by 2:00 p.m. at the East Montpelier Town Office. The bids will be opened at a Zoom remote meeting held for that purpose at 2:00 p.m. on Monday, May 24, 2021. The bids and resultant analysis will be considered by the East Montpelier Selectboard at its meeting that evening, Monday, May 24, 2021. That meeting will start at 6:30 p.m. with bid consideration listed at 7:00 p.m. on the agenda. Both meetings are open to contractors and the general public. Participation options are listed at the end of this post.
