Town Meeting voters approved Article 4 to raise the Delinquent Tax Collector fee from 5% to 8%. Carroll Macie moved the Article and Gregg Williams seconded. DTC Cindy Wilmoa described administrative workload since taking the role a few months earlier, said she has been sending tax bills monthly and that she waived some fees initially to help taxpayers get set up on payment plans.
Supporters in the room praised her organization and efforts; the transcript reports that yea votes were in the majority and the Article passed, though no roll-call was recorded. The new fee will apply to delinquent collections under the town’s existing enforcement procedures.
