New Scotland’s senior transportation capabilities have been at half capacity since 2020 when it was determined repairing one of the town’s two senior buses would be too expensive.
For next year, the town-wide property tax will go from about $1.50 per $1,000 of assessed value to approximately $1.55 per $1,000, a year-over-year increase of 3.27 percent.
In July 2023, the workers from New Scotland’s highway, water and sewer, mechanic, transfer station, and parks departments signed a letter asking the town to voluntarily recognize their right to unionize.
