ENOSBURG FALLS, VILLAGE OF

What ENOSBURG FALLS, VILLAGE OF does

The Village of Enosburg Falls is a municipal government entity incorporated in Franklin County, Vermont, providing essential public utility and civic services to residents and businesses within its jurisdictional boundaries. Its core operations span three regulated utility services: electric power distribution (via the Electric Department), drinking water supply from two groundwater wells (Well 1 and Well 2, operated by the Water Department), and wastewater treatment (via the Waste Water Treatment Facility at 39 St Albans St, led by Chief Operator Brian Ovitt). Complementary public works functions include highway maintenance, tree trimming for electric line safety, zoning administration, and emergency services coordination. The Village serves as the designated regional center for western Franklin County and is governed by an elected five-member Board of Trustees with an appointed Village Manager (John Dasaro) overseeing daily operations across a staff of approximately 6 employees.

The Village's technology footprint is modest and infrastructure-focused. The primary customer-facing technology is SmartHub, a third-party online and mobile billing platform that enables utility account registration, bill payment via debit/credit card or ACH, AutoPay setup, and paperless billing. The municipal website is built on WordPress, publishing meeting agendas, minutes, ordinances, consumer confidence reports, and notices. Board of Trustees meetings are conducted in person at 16 Village Drive and remotely via Microsoft Teams. The Village is actively engaged in long-term infrastructure planning, evidenced by the 2015 Unified Comprehensive Municipal Plan, the 2018 Source Protection Plan, the 2019 Integrated Resource Plan, and a 2025 CSO Long-Term Control Plan Addendum for wastewater compliance.

The Village generates operating revenue through three primary streams: usage-based utility billing for electric, water, and sewer services; recurring property taxes; and transaction-based municipal fees including zoning permits, subdivision applications, park use permits, peddlers' permits, and driveway access permits. Utility rate schedules are publicly available, with the most recent rate changes effective December 13, 2023 and an updated billing schedule effective May 15, 2026. Net metering options are available to electric customers. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. Distribution occurs through in-person service at the Village Office (7AM-4PM Monday-Friday), the SmartHub self-serve portal, phone payments via 1-833-543-1124, and mail. Marketing and community outreach rely on the Village website, Front Porch Forum, and physical posting at six local locations.
