Please take notice that at a regular meeting of the Hinesburg Selectboard on August 16, 2010, a new Wastewater Capacity Allocation Ordinance was adopted by the Hinesburg Selectboard. The Ordinance regulates all aspects of the municipal wastewater capacity allocation process including, but not limited to: reserve capacity allocation; cost recovery for wastewater expansion; application requirements; findings, approval and conditions; fees; authority to require connection; and, prior allocations. A complete copy of the Ordinance is available for review at the Hinesburg Town Hall, Monday – Friday from 8 am to 4 pm. or available for download (see below).

The ordinance will become effective on October 15, 2010, unless a petition signed by at least five percent of the voters of the Town of Hinesburg is filed with the Town Clerk by September 30, 2010, on the question of disapproving the Ordinance. If a petition is received, the Selectboard will warn a special meeting and the voters may vote on that question, pursuant to Chapter 59 of Title 24, Vermont Statutes Annotated.

Confirmed Case Of Rabies In Hinesburg


The Town received a call from the Vermont Department of Health on August 13th advising that there had been a confirmed case of rabies in a skunk in Hinesburg on Postiche Lane (just south of the village off of Route 116).

Although we do not hear a lot about rabies in Vermont, this is not an unusual occurrence since rabies has been detected in Hinesburg in the past.

It's wise to keep in mind actions that should be taken to prevent rabies, such as:
  • USDA'S Vermont Rabies Hotline: 1-800-472-2437 (800-4-RABIES)
  • Vermont Department of Health: 1-800-640-4374 (Vermont only) or 802-863-7240
  • Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department: 802-241-3700
Find out more about rabies at the Vermont Department of Health website located at: http://healthvermont.gov/prevent/rabies/Rabies.aspx
