Select Board to sign transit agreement with legal edit capping town contribution at 25%
Summary
The board reviewed a draft resort transit agreement and agreed to sign with legal edits to explicitly limit the town’s share to no more than 25% if other parties decline to participate.
The Select Board discussed a proposed transit agreement for ski-resort-area shuttle service and agreed to accept legal edits that make explicit the town will pay no more than 25 percent of the cost if other parties decline to participate.
Town counsel recommended the clarification; board members said the change protects the town if individual lodges or other parties do not participate in the WBRA or similar consortium. The board asked the manager to forward the language to counsel and to the resort association for finalization.
