State denies the voters will

The State government operations committee denied all three charter changes approved by the voters of Rutland City on Town Meeting Day. These changes would have placed term limits into effect on the Mayor and Board of Alderman and saved the taxpayers approx. $1,000,000 per year by having city employees contribute 20% towards their health insurance. The insurance results showed a clear 70 - 30 margin at the polls. The Unions showed their presence at the hearing to disregard the will of the people.

More information will be posted as it becomes available.
