while these tactics are suspect, if the college property is run by the religious organization Bhakta claims is going to buy it, kiss the tax revenue, access to the river, library and access to the property goodbye.

they aren't asking to not pay taxes - they are asking the town to work with them on a tax strategy that will help entice outside money into the college redevelopment. this could bring large amounts of tax revenue and jobs to the area, and it needs it bad.

When I'm expecting important/valuable mail I put my mail on vacation hold until a few days after I expect the important mail.

Kind of sucks it's come to this, but it works.

You can pick up your mail before the hold ends if you know your item has arrived at the PO.

They absolutely do not. They are very short staffed and have stated they may not respond to calls that aren't emergencies. I'm not sure what motivation they would have to use "bait cars" even if they weren't. It's not like car theft is a big problem in Montpelier.
