Vermont H0516 approves amendments to the charter of the Town of Essex, which include provisions for the vacancy of a Selectboard member's office if they move out of town or fail to attend at least 50% of meetings. The bill also establishes a Department of Real Estate Appraisal Assessment to handle property appraisals, replacing the previous system of elected listers. Additionally, it mandates the Selectboard to employ a public accountant to examine the town's financial statements and makes other minor adjustments to the town's governance structure.
