§ 505. Tax within Bennington Rural Fire District No. 1
(a) The tax assessed by the Town on the grand list shall be reduced with respect to real

the Town for fire protection furnished by all fire departments in the Town. This tax

charter of the Town of Bennington. (Amended 2019, No. M-8, § 1, eff. June 10, 2019.)
