4/6/2026 Town Council debate concerning the implementation and legality of an increased veterans tax credit. Councilor Bouchard cites a legal opinion suggesting the town cannot apply the credit retroactively, potentially rendering the current program vulnerable to court challenges. Conversely, Councilor Faber argues that according to the Department of Revenue Administration (DRA), the tax break should have taken effect immediately as originally intended. Town Manager Shaun Mulholand stated that DRA opinion is contrary to the towns legal opinion. The discussion highlights a significant communication breakdown between the town manager, the assessor, and council members regarding administrative timelines. Ultimately, the leaders are grappling with conflicting regulatory advice while attempting to rectify a procedural mistake that impacted local veterans.
