Since, due to an error on the part of the Town Clerk, the availability of the office of Road Commissioner was not posted on the Town website, the deadline has been extended for submitting petitions and consent forms for the office of Road Commissioner: the deadline for turning in petitions and consent forms to the Town Clerk for this office is now Thu., Feb. 7, 2013, at noon.

The Town Clerk apologizes for any inconvenience his error might have caused.

The Town of Guildhall is now taking prepayment orders for copies of the “History of Guildhall, Vermont”.  This book, written in 1975 by Pat Rogers and published in that year by the Town of Guildhall Bicentennial Committee, has long been out of print, but local bookbinders, under contract with the Town, are making a limited number of copies available.  Your check of $60.00 (made payable to the Town of Guildhall) reserves you a copy.  (Please note that this book is different from the "History of Guildhall, Vermont" that E.C. Benton published in the early 1900s.  The Benton history is currently available for purchase at the Town Office).
