Bill > H0510

This bill proposes to repeal the charter of the Town of Danville, Vermont, following a voter approval on March 4, 2025. The bill specifically removes the existing provisions in 24 App. V.S.A. chapter 114 that previously governed the town's annual and special meetings, including requirements for calling meetings and voting on budgets by Australian ballot (a voting method where ballots are marked in secret and counted in public). By repealing the charter, the town will no longer have these specific local governance rules and will instead be governed by standard Vermont state municipal laws. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage, which means the town's charter will be officially dissolved at that time.
