The town also maintains to dumpsters for Island residents. I'm OK with that. It helps keep the lake clean. But I have to pay for garbage pick up on the lake in Gilford. I can not use the dumpsters even tho I am a Gilford taxpayer. What's up with that?

This is a touchy subject with many Gilford islanders. We pay plenty in taxes for seasonal homes, do not use the schools, and do not get much of anything else from the town. The least that they can provide us with is a place to dump our trash and tie up our boats. Docking after 5pm is never an issue and the parking officer is typically gone by then anyhow.
Does Gilford have it wrong, or is it the other towns that do?
