Green Up Day
We want to extend our gratitude to all the Panton residents, young and not so young, who made the effort to get out and comb the roadsides for the refuse that blights our very special corner of the planet. We are especially thankful to all the parents who guided their kids in this effort while helping to instill an appreciation for the beauty that enriches all our lives and the responsibility we all share in safeguarding it.

This remarkable Vermont tradition provides a great opportunity for folks to engage in such a worthwhile community activity! And this year, many stopped by for coffee, fruit, donuts and granola bars at the Panton Town Hall and a chance to chat with members of the Select board.

So know that your endeavors are very much appreciated!!

BURN PERMITS
Panton's Fire Warden is Matt Fraley. 

Even though we seem to have snow or rain weekly, fire danger is high due to strong winds, which dry the vegetation even when the ground is wet. 

When fire danger is high, burn permits will only be issued in certain situations as determined by the Fire Warden. 

You can check fire danger levels at ​https://fpr.vermont.gov/forest/wildland-fire/monitoring-fire-danger

You can contact Matt at (802) ​759-2601 (H) or (802) 777-7972 (C).


FOR EMERGENCIES
Fire, Rescue and Police - dial 911. If you are using a cellular phone, your call will go to NY. Tell the dispatcher you need help in Vermont. 

NON-EMERGENCY NUMBERS
Addison County Sheriff's Department 388-2981
Vergennes Area Rescue Squad 877-3683
Vergennes Fire Department 877-3201
Vergennes Police Department 877-2201
Vermont State Police 388-4919


​The Town of Panton offers a free WiFi hotspot available to the public outside the Panton Town Offices.  Please use at your convenience during these challenging times.
