Berlin Developer Walks Away From Sewer Bill | Montpelier News

A Berlin developer is walking away from a six-year, $110K sewer bill for unused wastewater capacity — but won’t get a refund. The town switched to a “fixed cost” model in 2020, and despite never flushing a single toilet, Fecteau Residential kept paying — until they canceled the allocation last month. Town officials flatly denied a credit, calling it a “no-brainer.” Meanwhile, Berlin’s moving forward: construction has begun on a $6.8M new garage, and a 1.5-acre land sale for $1M (set to close Friday) will fund it — with plans for a five-story Hilton hotel next door.
