JACKSON — After an often contentious meeting on Tuesday at town offices, selectmen by a 2-1 vote fined Black Mountain Ski Area $275 for the zoning violation of placing commercial signs on town property at the Veterans Park and Jackson Grammar School.
The signs, which said "Free Lift Rides Today," and "Ski Area Parking" with an arrow were promoting events at the ski area July 5.
