Remembering Dave Sears MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College Athletics mourned the loss of long-time friend and public address announcer Dave Sears last week. Known for his one-of-a-kind voice and witty personality, the campus community has sent its condolences to Sears family and friends. Below is a message sent out by Director of Athletics Erin Quinn to all faculty, staff and students. “Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff, “I am deeply sorry to inform you of the death on July 11 of Dave Sears, the voice of men’s hockey for the last 25 years. He was 56 years old. Panther hockey fans appreciated the professionalism and passion that Dave brought to his role as the public address announcer. They also valued his consistency—even after calling hundreds of games, his enthusiasm and skill as the PA announcer never wavered. Dave was an integral member of the team’s rink crew who truly enjoyed getting to know the students on the team. “Dave also served as an announcer at field hockey and women’s lacrosse games. Regardless of the sport, players and their fans will miss his sense of fun and the warm welcome he offered to the crowd at the start of every game. Yet, his presence at a game extended well beyond CONTINUED ON PAGE 12

Property Taxes causing Vt. outmigration

HIGH FIVE
By Bruce Parker Vermont Watchdog Report MONTPELIER — High property taxes in Vermont are bad for homeowners and are causing people to leave the state, the CEO of Vermont’s top realtor association says. Isaac Chavez of the Vermont Realtors knows what property owners face when trying to buy or sell homes and businesses in Vermont. Since moving from New Mexico three years ago, where he was the chief executive of the Southern New Mexico Multiple Listing Service, Chavez says he has seen the burdens increase for property owners who struggle to pay mortgages and taxes on CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

West Rutland War Memorial to honor local WWII vets
WEST RUTLAND— With a population of 2,326, just about everyone living in semi-rural West Rutland knows someone with a World War II veteran in their family tree. That’s why, starting in the autumn of 2013, a group of 16 West Rutlanders—descendants and friends of these veterans of the Greatest Generation—joined forces to plan a lasting monument honoring local war heroes. “We were inspired by the survivors of the war, as well as by the memories of our relatives who served,” said Ken Heleba, one of the committee leaders. “We created the West Rutland War War II Memroial Committee to plan and research the names to list on the monument. It has been a two-year-long process. And we’re now getting ready to unveil the monument next to town hall on Aug. 15.” Mary Reczak, who joins Heleba as one of the key committee members, stressed that building a lasting granite memorial—designed by Daniel Pratt of RCW Architects—to veterans was the right thing to do for the community. Both committee members had family

MIDDLEBURY —Several area businesses will be teaming up to raise money for the Middlebury Fire Department the weekend of July 24-25 as part of a fundraiser in honor of former fire fighter, Adam Myers. Adam Myers was a dedicated member of the Middlebury Fire Department until his tragic death in a car accident on July 20, 2011. He left behind a loving wife, two sons and many more friends and family along with a legacy of community service. The 4th annual Adam Myers Memorial Fundraiser for the Middlebury Fire Department will be a weekend-long event made possible by the generous contributions of organizations such as the Blueberry Hill Inn, R.k. Miles, Two Brothers Tavern, Goodro Lumber, Vermont Shade and Blind, Otter Creek Brewing, Woodchuck Cider, American Flatbread, Marble Works Partnership, and many more who have donated cash or items to be raffled off in Adam’s memory to benefit the Middlebury Fire Department. Friends and family will be traveling from across the country to honor Adam’s memory and to support the MFD. Ryan Emilio, ne of Adam’s former colleagues on MFD, tried to explain just how much Adam Myers meant to the Fire Department: “Adam was in integral part of our technical rescue team and a huge champion of everything we do here at the Department. His hard work, dedication and enthusiasm can never be replaced and will never be forgotten.”
Holmes Jacobs, a friend and former employer of Adam at Two Brothers Tavern reiterated how big a loss Adam’s death was to the community. “Adam was a wonderful individual. He was a devoted and loving husband, father and friend,” Jacobs said. “His civic service to the community will be missed on so many levels, and we are proud to honor his memory and dedication to the community by raising money for something he cared so deeply about.” On Saturday, July 2, from 10 a.m.-noon, there will be a Myers Middlebury Mini Muster in which children of all ages are encouraged to join members of the Middlebury Fire Department at the Recreational Park for fun games, refreshments and a tour of fire engines. That evening, friends and family will be gathering at Two Brothers Tavern to listen to the music of a local favorite, Snake Mountain Bluegrass, at 7 p.m. Following the show, over $2,000 in raffle prizes will be awarded. Tickets are $2 each or $50 for three. Two Brothers Tavern will be donating 10 percent of their total sales from Saturday to the Middlebury Fire Department.

Middlebury woman uncovers quasar mystery By Felicia Chou & Ray Villard
MIDDLEBURY — A Middlebury College researcher is using the NASA-ESA Hubble Space Telescope’s infrared vision to uncover the mysterious early formative years of quasars, the brightest objects in the universe. The historic space telescope’s sharp images un- Eilat Glikman Photo courtesy of Middlebury College veil chaotic collisions of galaxies that fuel quasars by feeding supermassive central black holes with gas. “The Hubble observations are definitely telling us that the peak of quasar activity in the early universe is driven by galaxies colliding and then merging together,” said Dr. Eilat Glikman, an assistant professor and research scientist at Middlebury College. “We are seeing the quasars in their teenage years, when they are growing quickly and all messed up.” Discovered in the 1960s, a quasar, which is a word What was happening in the universe 12 billion years ago? The universe was smaller and galaxies collided with each other. Middlebury’s Eilat Glikman looked at dusty quasar surroundings. contraction of “quasi-stellar object,” pours out the Credits: NASA/ESA light of as much as one trillion stars from a region of space smaller than our solar system. It took more than two decades of research to come to the conclusion that the source of the light is a gusher of energy coming from supermassive black holes inside the cores of very distant galaxies. The lingering question has been what turns these brilliant beacons on? Now Hubble has provided the best solution. “The new images capture the transitional phase in the merger-driven black hole scenario,” Glikman said. “The Hubble images are incredibly beautiful.” “We’ve been trying to understand why galaxies start feeding their central black holes, and galaxy collisions are one leading hypothesis. These observations show that the brightest quasars in the universe really do live in merging galaxies,” said co-investigator Kevin Schawinski of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. Glikman came up with a clever way to use Hubble’s sensitivity at near-infrared wavelengths of light to see the host galaxies by aiming at quasars that are heavily shrouded in dust. The dust dims the quasar’s visible light so that the underlying galaxy can be seen. Glikman, who received her PhD in astronomy at Columbia University in 2006, looked for candidate “dust-reddened quasars” in several ground-based infrared and radio sky surveys. Active galaxies in this early phase of evolution are predicted to glow brightly across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, making them detectable in radio and near-infrared wavelengths that are not as easily obscured as other radiation. She then used Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 to take a detailed look at the best candidate targets. Glikman looked at the dust-reddened light of 11 ultra-bright quasars that exist at the peak of the universe’s star-formation era, which was 12 billion years ago. The infrared capability of Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 was able to probe deep into the birth of this quasar era.

From the Editor
Doing the other things I
n my mind, July 14, 2015 will be memorable not for the nuclear weapons agreement signed between the USA and Iran, but for the fact that the USA completed humanity’s initial remote reconnaissance of the solar system. NASA’s three-billion-mile-long voyage to the small planet Pluto—with its peachy tinted surface snows composed of frozen nitrogen and methane and 11,000-feet tall ice mountains—took nine years, starting with its launch, aboard a Delta rocket, at Cape Canaveral, in January 2006. Several spacecraft engineers now working on the space agency’s New Horizons mission to Pluto were high school students when the nuclear-powered probe was launched into space. We’re lucky to have motivated young people interested in pursuing science and engineering careers despite the sad fact that our popular culture has a complete lack of interest in such things. As a proud American, I am embarrassed to even point out that a majority of our nation’s current leaders—unlike those of our modern past—do so very little to inspire young minds to study and pursue technical careers, upon which the nation’s future rests. While the President paraded his legacy through the controversial international nuke deal, it was actually the legacies of other U.S. Presidents—ranging from Eisenhower to Bush—that were highlighted with the completion of America’s grand tour of the solar system July 14. New Horizons began its star trek two years before the current President was elected. Commencing in the 1950s, President Eisenhower began our nation’s exploration of space with the creation of the civilian agency NASA. During the 1960s, President Kennedy inspired a nation to send people safely to the Moon. During the 1970s, President Nixon pushed for the development of Skylab and the space-shuttle program. During the 1980s, President Reagan proposed the space station which later became the ISS. During the 1990s, President Clinton spearheaded a new space alliance between the USA and Russia and helped renew research into the use of safe nuclear propulsion in space. Then, during the early 2000s, President George W. Bush, pushed for the building of Orion, a new national spacecraft designed for sending astronauts to the Moon, Mars and beyond—a project which President Obama is continuing despite making major changes. Regarding last week’s historic space achievement, I had to seek out the NASA TV channel for in-depth coverage about Pluto. Looking for Pluto news, I was dumbstruck by all the other news—murders by illegal aliens, USA-Iran-Israel, Confederate flags, a new novel about racial problems by Harper Lee, and sniping along the 2016 campaign trail. But when it comes to reporting science news? Hello? Anyone there? The nation’s mainstream news outlets get a red “F” from this teacher. I heard in-depth news about the Pluto flyby on Britain’s BBC. And NPR? Well, preoccupied with politics as usual. As far as July 14 goes, while the predictable headlines were mostly focused on doom and gloom, I turned elsewhere to find something to cheer about: I was glad to watch NASA TV and see that America still has bold new horizons to explore—out there, far beyond our cradle Earth. On such a day I found a 1962 speech by JFK still bracing: “We choose to go... and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because... (exploring space) will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win.” The Vermont Eagle

Burns finds personal rewards in helping shelter animals adapt and find new homes among loving caretakers. “It is a community treasure,” Burns said regarding Homeward Bound. “It is a privilege to be able to help out.” Homeward Bound’s mission is to educate the community and improve the lives of animals, alleviate their suffering, and el-
evate their status in society. They safeguard, rescue, shelter, heal, adopt and advocate for animals in need, while inspiring community action and compassion on their behalf, according to Burns. Lindsay Arzberger Lindsay Arzberger, of Brandon, has been volunteering as a dog walker at Homeward Bound since October. “I primarily walk and play with the dogs at the shelter. I’d love to volunteer more, but grad school and working as an RN keeps me pretty busy,” she said. “I enjoy being with the animals and giving them exercise and attention. They are great dogs that just need to find their perfect family.” In other volunteer news, Eddy Guiles said that the Town of Middlebury is looking for volunteers to help serve summer lunches at the Recreation Park, 11:45 a.m. –1 p.m., Monday-Friday, through Aug. 7.

Camping memories
I
love music and enjoy a little trivia. As the years roll by, though, many lyrics have escaped me like a slow leak in your car tire. When my busy head was searching for this week’s topic in the middle of the night, one word stepped front and center: Camping. So, let’s talk camping. by Gordie Little My troubled mind is more bizarre than that of the average bear. For some reason, it conjured up an old song that the vast number of my readers will not recollect. A few history buffs will be humming along with me, while the rest of you are left in the lurch. It’s called “Tenting Tonight” or “Tenting on the Old Camp Ground.” To set the record straight, it was written by a man named Walter Kittredge in 1863 and became popular with Union Army troops during the Civil War. My late mother had the sheet music crammed into the piano stool and we sat around singing it more than seventy years ago. That’s what families did after supper. It was a sad song about war and death and homesickness and all the rest. But, it stuck in my young memory and has remained there. My own tenting memories are far more pleasant and I’ll conjure up a few. As a young lad, my brother Jim and I joined our parents in traveling to campgrounds in Beacon, NY as well as all the way up from Westchester County to the Mooers Campground here in northern Clinton County. The old canvas Army tents on wooden platforms had a special odor that is hard to describe. And the services in what they called “the tabernacle” were full of fire and brimstone. Kaye and I have also tented with our family many times throughout our long relationship and marriage. I seem to recall spending a lot of time trying to waterproof the tent seams to keep rain water out. Once, at a campsite near Lake George, we went to sleep confident that the tent wouldn’t leak. That changed when I woke up a few hours later in a driving storm and felt for my trousers. They had soaked up about fifteen pounds of water. We scrambled into the SUV for the rest of the night. From there, it was pop-up campers and they were only slightly better. On one memorable occasion on Cape Cod, I was jolted awake to the sensation that I was falling and ended up in my BVDs on the ground after the metal supports gave out under the bed. The neighbors cheered. We spent over forty years at our all-time favorite place called Cole’s Creek on the St. Lawrence River between Massena and Waddington. Family, friends, music and marshmallows over open fires gave us magical memories enough for a lifetime. Over the past 30 years or so, we graduated to towbehind hard-sided campers with many home comforts. The sunsets there rival those we enjoyed in Hawaii and we have thousands of photos to prove it. Friends from the Plattsburgh area and many from other counties, states and Canada joined us each year for two weeks in July. Campfire stories, long walks, games of dominoes and hundreds of good books to read. How can you beat that? While you are reading this, many of those same folks are camping at Cole’s Creek. We are not. It’s a lot of work preparing for the annual sojourn and we decided, after last year, to pack it in. We sold our truck and the camper and spend a lot of time reveling in the ambiance offered by our enclosed back deck along the beautiful Saranac River in Morrisonville. Do we miss camping? Sure thing. As a matter of fact. We’re visiting our family and friends on the St. Lawrence right now for a couple days while sleeping in a nearby motel. The times they are a changin’. Let’s all sing the tenting song: “We’re tenting tonight on the old camp ground, Give us a song to cheer Our weary hearts, a song of home And friends we love so dear.”

Middlebury woman’s DAR medal returns home By Lou Varricchio
lou@addison-eagle.com VERGENNES — Few residents of Addison County have heard of the late Eva Grace Ward Goss, a long-time resident of Middlebury. Born Feb. 25, 1896 in Barton, she was the daughter of Ward and Mary Jane Hutchinson. Goss’s family connection to the American Revolution sparked a lifelong passion for patriotism and a unique ability to inspire others to explore the founding ideals of America. As a young woman, Goss became a leader in the Daughters of the American Revolution’s Ethan Allen Chapter here in Vermont. “During her time with DAR, she was able to enlist 13 of her grandchildren to join the Green Mountain Boys Society of the Children of the American Revolution which was organized in 1972,” according to Hannah Doyle, development director of Purple Hearts Reunited. “In 1923, Goss joined the DAR Ethan Allen Chapter and would later become regent.” Last week, a long-lost DAR medal and ribbon which belonged to Goss, dating back to the 1920s or 1930s, were returned to Vermont. The medal was discovered, by sheer chance, inside an old wall in Burlington. The special return took place at a ceremony at the John Strong Mansion Museum in Vergennes; the presentation was conducted by members of Purple Hearts Reunited (PHR). PHR is a nonprofit foundation created by combat-wounded veteran Zachariah Fike in 2012. PHR helps locate and return lost or stolen military medals of valor in order to veterans or their families. While DAR is a civilian organization, its members are the descendants of American revolutionaries. According to Doyle, Goss worked hard to instill patriotic American values among the youth of Vermont.
Lost and found in an old wall in Burlington: A DAR medal belonging to the late Eva Grace Ward Goss of Middlebury. “In September 1917, Eva married Dr. Raymond Charles Goss, a local veterinarian. She had two sons who served their country in the Navy during World War II; she also had two daughters,” Doyle said. “She passed away on Christmas Day 1985, at the age of 89, in Middlebury.” Doyle was one of the players in helping locate and return Goss’s DAR medal. “In May, we at PHR were contacted by a woman named Nancy Comstock looking for help to return the Goss insignia,” Doyle said. “Nancy told our organization that the medal was discovered several years ago by a friend of her daughter. Her father is a local electrician and found the medal in an old wall of an apartment building in Burlington.” Doyle noted that Nancy Comstock’s former name is Goss; she was given the medal with the hope that must have been given to one of her ancestors. Luckily, the name connection was correct and Comstock received the honors in Vergennes. According to Doyle, the insignia is now on permanent display at the John Strong Mansion Museum in Vergennes.
Police Reports Child’s near drowning investigated
ADDISON — On July 12, the Vermont State Police responded with members of the Addison Fire Department and Vergennes Rescue responded to residence on Jersey Street in Addison, for an 18-month-old child who was found unresponsive in a pool. ‘ While enroute, the 911 operator was informed the child had been revived and was breathing on her own. Vergennes Rescue transported the child to UVM Medical Center for precautionary reasons. The child was held overnight at UVM Medical Center for observation.

members who served during World War II. “Our goal was straightforward,” Reczak said. “We wanted to identify every veteran who was a West Rutland native or who lived here prior to his or her military service—then we wanted to build a unique memorial that will be a lasting reminder of their sacrifice.” In an exhaustive search to confirm which World War II veterans were born in West Rutland, all 16 9committee members— with the help of local residents and a Facebook page—found 609 men and women who qualified for inclusion on the new town honor roll. “To understand the challenge of identifying our World War II veterans,” Reczak added, “you have to remember the ethnic makeup and size of this town.” Reczak pointed out that West Rutland has had a diverse population since the early 1900s. In some cases, unlike today’s immigrants, foreign names were shortened or even Anglicized as to better fit into the local cultural melting pot. “Over the previous century, immigrants from Poland, Italy, Ireland, Sweden, even Canada, settled around the local marble quarries to find reliable work,” she noted. “There were a lot of
www.addison-eagle.com languages with family names of various spellings.” The new monument, which will be dedicated during a special ceremony Aug. 15, was not West Rutland’s first attempt to recognize World War II service men and women. According to Reczak, West Rutland’s original World War II Roll of Honor was a plywood structure which stood on the front lawn of West Rutland High School. Despite the fact that the first Roll of Honor, erected in 1943, deteriorated over the decades, there were 472 names listed—however, adding them to the 2015 monument meant verifying each one. Along the way, the memorial committee would have a better appreciation for just how many local residents left Vermont to fight the Axis powers during the 1940s. “We had to apply the same criteria to the other names which were never listed on the original Roll of Honor,” Heleba said. “And then we were able to verify a total of 609 individuals who were either born in West Rutland or lived here before they joined the armed forces between the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor and the signing of the peace treaty.” So, for a local name to be inscribed on the new memorial, veterans had to have joined the military between Dec. 7, 1941 and Sept. 2, 1945. Reczak said several vital resoruces were used to identify the veterans—the Vermont Roster of World War II Veteran, the National Archives, various U.S. service records, the American Le-
Published by New Market Press, Inc. gion, both town and church records, the U.S. Census Bureau, even local newspaper archives were consulted. “We spoke with descendants of veterans and met many wonderful people who sahred stories baout their family heores,” Reczak said. Both Heleba and Reczak said that the World War II Memorial Committee and many West Rutland residents take pride in the upcoming tribute to local military heroes. The memorial committee members extand an inviation to all area veterans, families and friends of veterans, and residents from surrounding communities, to join them on the West Rutland Town Hall green on Saturday, Aug. 15. The ceremony will begin at 10 a.m. Tax deductible donations for the memorial fund are welcome.

the act of announcing. As
Middlebury field hockey coach Katharine Delorenzo noted, “Dave was truly one of our biggest fans. His energy was infectious. Every athlete looked forward to the moment he would announce her name. His voice was one of the iconic experiences for our studentathletes, and we will always cherish our memories with ‘The Voice’ (as Dave was affectionately known) as part of the Middlebury field hockey family.” “According to former Middlebury women’s lacrosse coach Missy Foote, ‘no college sports announcer ever brought such meaning and playfulness to the role of PA as Dave Sears. He especially loved to announce the names and hometowns of Vermonters. Dave showed up, rain or shine, hot or cold, snow or wind with a voice that united spectators and athletes alike in the joy of the game.’ “Many also knew Dave as a radio personality covering such events as Middlebury Union High School football and basketball games, where his trademark voice and personality also became a key part of the local sports scene. Dave’s death is a real loss for the community as well as for Middlebury athletics.” Sears is survived by his wife Sue and his daughters Megan and Alex. A memorial service will be held on July 16, at 11 a.m. at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Middlebury. Calling hours will take place on July 15, 6-8:00 p.m. at Miller and Ketcham Funeral Home in Brandon, Vermont. Gifts in lieu of flowers may be made to the Cornwall Volunteer Fire Department, 1952 Route 30, Cornwall, Vt. 05753, or to Friends of Middlebury Football, attention: Sean Farrell, 73 Charles Ave., Middlebury, Vt. 05753.

homes and businesses. In the first of this two-part interview with Vermont Watchdog, Chavez says taxes passed in the 2015 legislative session will increase the trend of outmigration in the state, and he predicts the situation will worsen if lawmakers don’t think about the impact taxes have on the cost of living in the Green Mountain state. Vermont Watchdog: When you look at trends of people coming and going in Vermont, what do you see? Chavez: There’s no way for us to track that technically, but, anecdotally, we see it all the time. Our members are the first ones to know when somebody decides they’re going to head out. … So, yeah, our members are all the time talking about how everybody is leaving. If you look at Facebook posts from members, you constantly hear stories — a another third generation Vermonter has just sold their house, another 22-year-old who was hoping to make his career here has decided there is no way he can afford to live here so he’s taking off. The outmigration is substantial. VW: What are the causes of that outmigration? Chavez: Part of that is because we have no true business growth. We’re probably one of the most anti-business-friendly states in the country — I know that for a fact. We’re getting our lunch eaten by New Hampshire and New York. New York is doing everything they can to get small businesses to start up there — 10 years tax relief and all these benefits. We don’t do any of that here. In fact, it’s the opposite. Every other law that’s passed here is not business friendly. This year they passed mandatory sick leave, and it’s mandatory this and mandatory that. They don’t understand that if you’re a small business owner, you’re practically already living on the margins to begin with in this state, and something’s going to fall. VW: The Legislature passed $63 million in new taxes this year, some related to property. What impact will property taxes have on people who own homes and businesses? Chavez: I came from New Mexico where I was CEO of the Southern New Mexico Multiple Listing Service. I came from a place that’s a relatively poorer state than here, but it had extremely low property taxes. Families could afford to buy a house and live the American dream and stay and try to make a go of it. We don’t have that here right now. It’s extremely hard, and it’s the same with renters. If you can find a place to rent to begin with, your rent is going to be a skyrocketing high rate here because the owner of the property has to pass it on. So it’s not only something homeowners face, or only something rich people face. VW: To clean up Lake Champlain, lawmakers raised about $7.6 million by increasing the property transfer tax 0.2 percent — from about 1.2 percent to 1.4 percent. Do you think that tax was the right way to clean up our water in Vermont? Chavez: That property transfer tax in Vermont is borne by the buyers of property. What they’ve basically said is, OK, we’re going to start making an effort to clean up our waters, which everybody agrees needs to be done, including us — by far, we want a clean lake and we want clean rivers; we think that’s what makes Vermont special and beautiful and that will get more people to want to live here. But to say that the future property buyers in this state are going to now pay for the sins of the parents doesn’t make any sense. What the government is asking is that anybody that buys a property is going to have to bear the brunt. And what makes it even more ridiculous is it’s only going to raise $5 million to $7 million a year from that particular property tax increase. That’s absurd. At the minimum you’re going to need about $100 million a year for years to get even close to getting Lake Champlain where it needs to be. It was really a token gesture, and they put it on the backs of future property owners, which was kind of a chicken way to do it. It’s not going to have any meaningful impact. VW: The property transfer tax is to sunset in a few years. In your view, does that reduce any possible long-term negative impact the tax might have on buying property in Vermont? Chavez: Anybody who’s been around a while will tell you it’s very rare when anything does get to sunset. They usually end up extending it or just making it permanent. So, we’re not confident that’s going to sunset in three years like they said it will. VW: Is your group claiming any victories regarding property taxes from this past session? Chavez: Senate Finance was trying to put a cap specifically on mortgage interest deductions for Vermont tax returns. We were able to stave that off. In exchange, they put an overall cap on all deductions at a 2.5 times the standard deduction. That total number is a large number, so we feel that’s going to be OK, or at least it’s the best we could have hoped for. It doesn’t target any deduction specifically. So, if you have a two-person household and you’re filing jointly for taxes, that’s almost $30,000 in deduc-
www.addision-eagle.com tion capability, which is more than enough to cover just about anybody’s mortgage interest in this state plus their property tax deductions. So we feel that was somewhat of a victory, although it’s kind of the victory you wish you never had to begin with. Mortgage interest deduction has been part of the federal tax code since its inception 80 years ago. It’s not something new. It’s been there since day one, since we’ve had an income tax, because the leaders at that time realized how important housing was to any type of economic stability around the country. This is the first recession that housing hasn’t led us out of. (In) every recession until this recession, housing was always the driver to bring us out, and it hasn’t this time because there hasn’t been a lot of cooperation at the different levels of government. VW: You said you see your group as an advocate not only for realtors but for property owners. What do you mean by that? Chavez: There is no Property Owners Association of Vermont or Homeowners Association of Vermont, and they (property owners) just seem to be getting left out of all the conversations. The politicians automatically go to the property tax trough whenever they need money, and there’s nobody there to really stand up for the property owners, except for individuals who can go to a hearing or public meeting — but nothing organized. So we really feel we are representing all property owners in Vermont, not just realtors. Vermont Watchdog: What are your thoughts about the Legislature’s performance on property taxes in 2015? Chavez: Everybody said this was the year we were going to have significant or meaningful property tax reform. And of course, here we are now and it’s the same old song. Nothing happened. They passed a very watered down education finance package that does nothing to lower property taxes. In fact, it’s probably going to raise property taxes in the short term. So that’s a big disappointment. We’re most unhappy with the increase in the property transfer tax. It’s bad enough that we have a transfer tax. Many states don’t have transfer taxes, and they have very robust buying and selling of properties. VW: What made some people think this year would be different regarding property taxes? Chavez: We really felt we were going to see a change in attitude at the Legislature this session after the outcry at town hall meetings last year, when a bunch of budgets were voted down, and then also with the outcome of the election, where the governor almost lost and several longtime House members lost their seats. But they just keep adding more taxes and regulations and making it harder, and that’s why we’re having these $100 million deficits in Vermont year in and year out. We’re talking, what, maybe a $70 million budget deficit again next year? It never ends because they’re not bringing in enough income tax, because the economy is not growing at what they’re spending. So they’re doing everything that none of us in the real world can do. If I have a budget with my family, I have to live within that budget. If I go over that I’m going to get in trouble. But here in Vermont they just find new taxes and fees to add on. VW: Why do lawmakers ignore Vermonters who cast votes last November to protest rising property taxes in the state? Chavez: Our group is representative of what most people in the state are feeling right now, but because the politicians are influenced by such a
The Vermont Eagle • July 25, 2015 | 13 small number of special interests, they almost don’t feel any repercussions. They can forego the will of the people because they know they’ll get re-elected every time. VW: Your group has lobbying influence. Why aren’t they listening to you? Chavez: Even though we’re the largest trade association, we still don’t have nearly the amount of influence that the Vermont NEA has. The NEA is Isaac Chavez the Big Kahuna in Vermont — they basically control the majority of the Legislature. They don’t have to even come out publicly and say things; they just wink and nod and use certain codes and phrases on TV interviews, and the legislators in their committee meetings the next day shut down anything that’s significant. We saw that over and over in the session when they talked about banning teachers strikes and looking at statewide teachers contracts. All these great ideas that would make a difference were not even vetted in the proper committees, because they’re not allowed to bring those up. VW: You said you support cleaning up Lake Champlain, but you also argue the $7 million or so raised from the property transfer tax will do little more than start a new bureaucracy. Explain. Chavez: It’s going to allow them to hire more inspectors and hire more compliance officers, but it’s not getting to the crux of the problem. We’re really disappointed because it’s already hard enough for younger or new home buyers to buy a house in this state, and to make the property tax even higher just defies logic. It shows the legislators were once again afraid to make the hard choices. VW: From the perspective of the Vermont Realtors, what needs to change in Montpelier? Chavez: When the government in Vermont makes decisions, lawmakers never seem to look four or five steps ahead. They’re offered advice from groups like ours and the chambers of commerce. We have experts, we have resources, we have studies, we have national data. We have the resources available to show the committees at the Legislature, and the governor’s staff, what this is going to lead to, because it’s happened in other places. But they don’t want to hear it. They are so set in their ideology that they do not want to hear anything counter to what they feel is right. And then a year or two later we say ‘I told you so.’ CORRECTION: Isaac Chavez was formerly CEO of the Southern New Mexico Multiple Listing Service, not the New Mexico Realtors Association.
