Clarksburg Has Buyers for Cruisers; OKs Exemption Income Hike

By Tammy DanielsiBerkshires Staff
CLARKSBURG, Mass. — The Select Board will be deciding next week who will get the town's police cruisers.
 
At Monday's meeting, it also approved changes in the property tax exemptions, including raising the income limit.
 
The board had voted to dissolve police department in March and rely on the State Police. The two cruisers, including one purchased in 2021, have been taking up space in the garage ever since. 
 
Town Administrator Ronald Boucher on Monday said Adams, Cheshire and Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts had all evinced interest in the vehicles. 
 
MCLA Lt. Mark Denault attended Monday's meeting and said the college was ready to purchase the newer cruiser. 
 
"I'm here to just hear what the board has to say and where they're headed," said Denault. "We're ready now. MCLA is ready. So if we have a purchase-sale agreement tomorrow, we're ready to cut a check tomorrow."
 
The Adams Finance Committee was reviewing a possible purchase of both vehicles that night. Police Chief F. Scott Kelley had told the Adams Selectmen at a budget workshop in April that the department needed to get on a schedule to update its fleet.
