Tele-Talk question: Do you support adding a $5 fee to car registrations to pay for road work?

The estimated $63,000 to be raised annually by the fee would go into a capital reserve fund for transportation projects. Antique cars, motorcycles, ATVs and snowmobiles would be exempt. In discussing the warrant article, Selectman John Colbath said he would support the fee but would cut the 2021 capital budget by the amount raised from the fee so residents wouldn’t be double taxed.
