BERNE — Berne residents were surprised this week when they got their town tax bills: the expected 38 percent hike is closer to 69 percent.
The new supervisor, Joseph Giebelhaus, said that he was surprised as well.
The Rensselaerville Town Board has scheduled a hearing on the matter for 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 22, at the town hall.
He would still be willing to settle with the town, Crosier said.
